6-foot-2, 215 pound left-handed hitting first baseman. The athleticism and projection is through the roof with this guy. The foot speed is solid, he ran a 7.43 sixty at the event. The glove and foot work around the bag are well taught. He shows a feel for the position, throwing 78 mph across the diamond at the workout. The bat has an exit velocity of 99 mph. The hands and bat speed are advanced. The setup is even and the posture is tall. He gains distance to the ball as it travels. The path is a tick uphill with plus life. He is a legit prospect.

Nick Ranaldi: 1B/OF, (2026) The Governor�s Academy, MA. 6-foot-1, 200-pound athletic projectable build. Projectable and athletic at the plate, the left-handed hitter's best exit velocity was 91 mph. (70.0 mph bat speed average). (23.9 mph hand speed average). Begins in a balanced wide stance with a wrapping controlled load, then uses a small stride. Bat speed was developing, had an uphill loose swing plane and good extension on his finish. He barreled up lots of balls with loud contact. Gap to gap aggressive approach. Athletic projectable while in the infield, registered his best throw across the diamond at 72 mph; has developing hands, developing athletic feet, and a clean natural exchange. Movements laterally were athletic developing and he fields the ball out front. Showed consistent accuracy to the bag with a high ¾ slot. Recorded a 60 time of 7.56 at the event.
