03/20/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Trenton, NJ Nicholas is a solid 1B who has a promising future on the diamond. At 1B, defensive abilities are solid as he shows smooth/fluid actions. He displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are soft/sure and presents out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying well above average hitting/power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick (87 mph exit velocity) and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap to gap pop. Lower half works well through an aggressive hip turn. Nicholas has potential with time and room to progress his game.
