Uncommitted Spotlight 2024 RHP/SS Ethan Nagy (Loyalsock)

 

Physical: Longer, projectable 6-foot-3, 185-pound frame. 8.01 runner in the 60YD.

Offensively: RHH. Slightly open, athletic stance, as the hands work flat over the shoulder. Utilized a lift-and-replace stride to initiate the swing through a direct path while hitting over the front leg. Somewhat steep plane at times with bat-speed, generating a T85MPH EV via Trackman, up to an estimated 282FT. More to come.

Defensively: The middle infielder displayed A/AVG feel in space, building tempo with feet and angles. Reached back for a lively 84MPH throwing arm across the INF, able to maneuver slots if needed. Body points to CIF future.

Pitching: RHP. Starts from the far left corner; easy separation with tall/fall delivery. Creates an impossible tilt at times on 84-86MPH FB and banger low-70’s CB (two-plane, 2599). Stuff misses bats, adding in 72-73MPH SL with feel to wrinkle in 78-79MPH faded CH.

 

 

 

Physical: Lengthy, projectable 6-foot-2, 185lb frame. 7.79 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Slightly open, taller stance; utilized a controlled lift and replace stride back to even, initiating the swing through an uphill path towards impact. Threw the hands at the ball with clean barrel-whip for a T88 mph bat-exit velocity at his peak. Lived on the sweet spot to all fields and carried over a leveraged approach into game action in advantage counts. 

Defensively: The shortstop demonstrated rangy actions and the body control to stick at a left side position. Might trend over to third base due to size, but posture worked with advanced arm strength up to 87 mph. 

Pitching: RHP - Started off the glove-side corner of the rubber, side rocker step into a high leg lift with some crossfire; uncoiled into release out over front side from H ¾ slot. Pounded strikes with funk to both sides; 82-84 mph, and added quality two-plane upper-60’s curveball. Dropped in 74-76 mph SL for a different look and showed fading CH back the other way.

 

 

Physical: 6-foot-1, 185 pounds; Lean, slight build. 7.72 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Open setup, with feet shoulder width apart; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Loads straight back with a toe-tap for timing.

Showed a downward swing path with a two handed finish.  More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 83 MPH via Trackman.

Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; walks into ready position while utilizing a quick first step. Hands are soft with a clean transfer. Moderate arm circle from a high 3/4 arm slot. INF - 85 MPH. 

Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with a slight coil away from the plate. Has a moderate stride while landing closed. Moderate arm swing while showing some scap load; standard 3/4 slot. Spins off 1B side with finish. FB: Peak velo of 84 MPH, while sitting 83-84 MPH; arm side run.  SL: 70-75 MPH; short action.
