Nicholas Gordon is a 2014 SS/RHP with a 6-2 170 lb. frame from Windermere, FL who attends Olympia HS. Slender young build, hasn't remotely started to add strength and mature muscle. Extremely fluid defensive actions, top of the line instincts with a very quick first step, 6.69 runner, advanced footwork, outstanding arm strength, made plays at third base and second base that looked like he'd played those positions his whole life, Gold Glove level tools and skills. Left handed hitter, limited shift, quick short swing, consistent hitting mechanics, pull line drive swing, present power is to the gaps when extended, makes consistent hard contact, will continue to improve offensively as he fills out. Best we've seen him on the mound, topped out at 94 mph on his fastball, easy balanced delivery, high 3/4's slot, works downhill, outstanding spin on hard upper 70's downer curveball. Has first round potential on the mound but higher ceiling as a shortstop. Son of former MLB star RHP Tom "Flash" Gordon. Good student, has a verbal commitment to Florida State.
PG Grade 10.0
