01/15/2016 - Baseball Factory National Spring Training at Pirate City Nathan continues to show steady progress in his baseball abilities. At 1B, he displays proper footwork around the bag. Presenting his glove more out in front will help to avoid getting the ‘in between' hop. Continuing to develop his foot speed will help to increase range in the IF. Offensively, he works on time and shows an aggressive swing path. He makes consistent contact, mainly to the pull side. Power numbers will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. At the event, he was 2 for 4. On the mound, fastball showed in the high 60 range. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. Control is solid as he throws strikes with all his pitches, attacking hitters. With 2 years to further develop, Nathan has abilities with time and room to improve.
