06/13/2012 - 2012 Team One Florida Showcase Nicholas continues to show as a two-way player 1B/LHP but currently projects best at 1B for the next level. Hitting grades and power numbers have improved tremendously and show pro potential at the plate. He shows an athletic setup and loose swing with hands generating tremendous bat speed to and through the ball at contact. Barrel accuracy is a plus with baseball exploding off his bat when centered. He will hit and hit with power at the next level. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 79-84 mph with a breaking ball that he throws for strikes. Future is at 1B and the plate where he will get attention from the professional scouts and top collegiate coaches.
10/01/2011 - Team One Futures East 2011 Longhi was one of just a handful of legitimate two-way prospects at this event. His fastball reached 88 with some arm side life, and went with a rolling breaking ball at 66-71 that he was able to throw for strikes. He had some deception in his delivery, was able to hide the ball especially well to LHH. Arm worked with quickness and across body some. At the plate, he showed rhythm to hit along with the ability to let the ball travel deep in the zone. His right handed stroke was loose and full, such that he was able to drive the ball to the opposite field gap.

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).
