Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 127 in the state after a strong showing at the O’Hare Preseason ID this winter. 6.85 runner and T101 exit velocity in showcase setting. Hit leadoff and played second base. Athleticism is clear watching him roam around the infield. Athletic overall actions, steady hands and feel for the middle infield. Made a highlight-reel double play turn up the middle. Offensively, loose swing and aggressive approach. Reached base in two of his five plate appearances and scored a run. Athletic uncommitted junior to know in the state.
+ A middle-infielder to note from the day is INF Chase Nelson (Fremd, 2026). Listed at 5-foot-11, 161-pounds with more strength to come, Nelson started his day by running to a 6.85 in the 60-yard dash. He took an impressive round of BP from the right side, reaching up to 101 mph for his max EV while averaging 94 mph, also reaching up to 381’ for his max distance. He has an explosive operation at the plate, showing athletic/quick hands with controlled intent. He also showed well on the infield, playing with some leverage and smooth actions.
Positional Profile: SS/OF
Body: 6-0, 170 pounds.
Hit: RHH. Balanced setup, slight knee bend, short stride. Quick hands, slightly uphill path, ability to drive the ball in the air, swings with intent. 71.9 mph bat speed with 15g of rotational acceleration.
Power: 101 mph max exit velocity (94 avg.); 381-foot max batted distance.

Vizual Edge: 66.1 Edge Score.
An athletic, 5-foot-8, 130-pound frame, Nelson had a great day at the plate for the Sparks North game against the White Sox Elite North. The right-handed hitter went 3-for-4 with three singles, while also showing well on the base paths. Nelson has a simple compact swing that keeps the barrel in the zone, allowing for easy barrels. His hands generate quick bat speed that helps drive the ball to all parts of the field. Nelson also collected a stolen base on the day.
