Top Uncommitted 2016 Outfielders
Nick Howie, OF, 2016
Scouting Report: Big 6-foot-3, 205-pound frame with speed and power. Current strength right now with strong lower half, along with hands and wrists. Howie recently ran a 6.54 at Tournament 12 that is put on by Roberto Alomar and the Toronto Blue Jays. The right-handed hitting outfielder is balanced at the plate and have seen him backspin balls that show lots of carry with solid contact. He plays a solid corner outfield with improved arm strength that shows accuracy. Moves well, shows athleticism and can hit and be a run producer in the middle of the order. Originally a 2015 grad, back for another year. Had lots of interest from D1 schools such as Canisius and San Francisco University among others. Is top outfielder available in the 2016 class in Ontario.
