10/08/2017 - College PREP - Sauget (St. Louis), IL Nick is a young, lean 2020 prospect who shows positional versatility in the field. He shows good feel defensively at first with good range to make plays down the line and in the hole. He shows a quick first step with active feet to cover his position and field the ball centered in his body. He has good instincts around the bag to shorten throws for infielders and pick balls in the dirt. In the outfield, his prep before the pitch and effort allow him to track down balls hit in all areas. He has sure hands to field and does a good job of keeping the ball in front to hold runners. At the dish, he has a square, athletic setup with quiet actions and a patient approach to work the count and get the pitch he can do damage with. He has a middle approach, working to keep his hands inside the ball and hit it where it is pitched. Working on getting loaded and striding on time will lead to more square contact and base hits moving forward. We look forward to watching how Nick continues to develop on the diamond.
