Nelson started at 2B for the 3A powerhouse Andrean 59’ers. The undersized middle infielder is a favorite amongst our staff, showing advanced swing mechanics in his left-handed stroke. The freshman collected an RBI triple to deep CF in his second trip to the plate. He worked mature at-bats throughout the day versus a quality right-handed junior. Nelson starts in a wide setup with a pre-pitch waggle in the hands. The pre-pitch bat waggle flows into his launch position and he uses a repeatable, toe tap stride. The swing works on an ideal plane with above average bat speed. In pre-game IO, Nelson showed soft hands and some body control to go along with an above average arm for the class. It will be exciting to watch the Andrean middle infielder progress throughout his high school career.

I love the movement patterns that '27 SS Chase Nelson (Andrean) showed throughout the event. Built with compact strength within a 5-foot-6, 145 pound frame - the undersized middle infielder took some of my favorite swings of the night. Starting with a rhythmic waggle that flows to his launch position during the load, Nelson uses a controlled, toe tap stride and the bat works on-plane early & gets to the front of the hitting zone consistently. A fundamental infielder with arm strength for the class and a swing that I am all in on - Nelson will be a fun '27 follow.
