08/30/2024 - All-Ripken Games - Cooperstown, NY Nico is a strong and skilled 1B/RHP who made a strong impression at the All Ripken Games. At first base, he moves with smooth, fluid actions and demonstrates excellent footwork around the bag, along with reliable receiving skills. His foot quickness allows him to cover a lot of ground efficiently. At the plate, Nico has a squared setup, quick hands, and a level swing path, showing power to the pull side. On the mound, his fastball sits in the 66-67 mph range, and his breaking ball has late depth at 44-45 mph. As he continues to build arm strength through a long toss program and develop his off-speed pitches, his pitching stock will rise. Nico has significant potential and plenty of room to grow his game.
