10/05/2014 - College PREP - Sauget (St. Louis), IL Nick is a broad, solid 3B that will graduate in 2015. At the plate is where he shows best displaying solid hitting / power grades through an athletic setup. Hands are quick, flashing bat speed and work through a level swing path, creating extension. He shows barrel accuracy and has strength in his swing with baseball jumping off the bat when centered as he works to stay inside the ball utilizing all fields. At 3B, he works to square balls up as he makes the routine plays, displaying clean hands. Defensive grade will continue to improve as he plays through balls more while presenting hands more out front and increases foot quickness. Throws are accurate but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program. Nick has abilities with a lot of room to improve.
