CLASS OF 2028

Uncommitted. Nystrom had a strong weekend, impacting the game in multiple ways. He is very versatile in the field and at the plate, with the ability to play multiple positions and handle each spot well. Shows a high baseball IQ with strong instincts and a natural feel for the game. He understands situations and consistently makes winning plays.At the plate, he has a simple approach with sneaky juice in the bat. He does a good job working at-bats and swinging at pitches he can drive. He is willing to take his walks and do whatever it takes to help his team win. He has the ability to use the whole field and shows a really good two-strike approach. The swing is under control, and he rarely looks overmatched. Projects as a reliable, steady contributor who impacts the game in all three phases.

Uncommitted. What a weekend it was for the freshman at the plate. Went 9-for-14 with 5 singles/ 3 doubles/ 1 triple/ 6 RBI’s. An athletic 5-foot-8, 150-pound frame with already sneaky strength to project on. The LHH possesses a quiet confidence at the plate and displays a well-connected stroke with fluidity through the zone and innate bat-to-ball to match. Delivers a whippy barrel through the zone with a tremendous feel for the barrel in an all-fields approach.. Showcases one of the smoothest strokes in the class with loud signs of a present budding hit-tool. Versatile defender that can move around the infield and play any position at a high-level. Name to know.
