At 2nd base, Nicholas has fluid footwork, he presents his glove well, and stays through with carry and accuracy to his target. At the plate, Nicholas can switch hit. From the right, he has a simple/aggressive swing, some bat speed, and he swings in good rhythm. From the left, Nicholas has good balance, still eyes, and a repeatable/solid stroke.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
