4.2.16: Nielsen has an athletic frame and throws from a low three-quarters arm slot with a short, loose arm that generates velocity with normal effort. His shoulders are down and closed as he strides to a square landing with a fall off finish. Nielsen’s fastball had heavy run, sitting 82-84 in the windup, and 80-81 in the stretch. His curveball had gradual 10/4 action, running 69-70 and has a lot of potential as he gets stronger and tightens its spin.
