Lean athletic body, loose whippy arm action both defensively & on the mound. He has a nice athletic set up at the plate, did a good job of getting hands to ball & barreling it up. Could use a better load at the plate to engage lower half. Defensively, has soft hands, quick feet, & quick strong arm stroke. Looks to be a very capable defender. On the mound he featured a smooth effortless delivery. Like many young pitchers he would benefit from increasing his stride length, gaining momentum down the mound to speed up his arm. Look for Nicholas to be a solid 2-way high school player.
