07/28/2008 - College PREP - Miami Shores, FL Nicholas is an athletic looking player. At 2B, he shows soft hands and quick turns during the double play. He moves laterally well, but he must build his arm strength through a long toss program or strength and conditioning. He also fields the ball deep under his body, but he is accurate with all throws. At the plate, Nicholas has bat speed and he centers the ball well. He remains balanced throughout the swing but his lower half must get more involved to increase hitting grades. With greater improvement on the defensive side, his overall rating should improve.
