Physical: Compact, athletic 5-foot-8, 160lb frame. 7.33 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Narrow, open stance with slightly bent knees. Utilized a stretched lift-and-replace stride to initiate the swing through a flat, whippy path towards a deep two-handed finish. Featured some rotational bat-strength at the plate, connecting to the ground for a T89 mph exit velocity during a pull-side approach (311 feet). Worked under the ball with backspin.
Defensively: The primary outfielder started upright with a hop in the prep-step. Attacked from behind using a downward chest at the touch and pronounced shuffle to record an 81 mph arm-strength out of a full range of motion, H ¾ slot.
Physical: 5-foot-7, 145 pounds; Lanky build with room to grow. 7.23 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Slightly open while standing tall in the box; has a quiet load that allows him to be repeatable. long stride from toe tap, stays in the lower half well with slightly uphill but with strong bottom hand it allows the ball to generate carry; 21 degree bat angle into the zone via Blast Motion. Nelson is able to produce 7.3 G’s of force with an on-plane efficiency of 68%. Consistent barrels when attacking the top of the ball which generated gap to gap power; average Trackman exit velocity of 72.24 MPH; peak exit velo was 81 MPH.
Defensively: Tall stance and set up; upright when attacking the ball. Transfer can be improved by speeding up the body in general but showed general concept; long arm action, occasionally spun the top of the baseball which resulted in accurate throws. OF - 79 MPH.
5-foot-7, 145-pound right-handed hitter starts from an open stance and utilizes a leg-hang stride to begin. Tends to get to front side early leading to some timing issues. Registered a bat exit velocity of 79 mph and ran a 7.25 60-yard dash. Moves well in the outfield and showcased straight line carry on throws of 80 mph to home plate.
