RHP/C Liam Nider (Manhattan, 2028) came away from this event as a name to know as he continues to polish his game. Packed with power and athleticism in a strong 6-foot, 195-pound frame, Nider impressed on both sides of the ball, showing true two-way impact potential. At the plate, he generated easy exit velocity from a quick, compact right-handed swing that sprayed line drives gap-to-gap, with a peak exit velocity of 96.6 mph — one of the top marks at the event regardless of class. Afterwards, Nider hopped on the mound, pitching in the low-80s (T83.2 mph) while mixing in a 72–75 mph curveball and 75–76 mph changeup.
