View Draft Report
Nesbitt progressed throughout the summer and fall prior to his high school season showing impressive stuff for scouts, first during the summer at an event in Georgia and again during the fall at Perfect Game’s Jupiter showcase, where he showed impressive fastball velocity and a plus breaking ball. Shortly thereafter, Nesbitt committed to Florida (he was previously committed to Florida Gulf Coast) and seemed like one of the 50 best high school prospects in the 2019 class. However, this spring his stuff hasn’t been to the level that he flashed at times last summer and fall, with a fastball that sits mostly in the 88-91 mph range and a fringy breaking ball that scouts peg as average. Nesbitt has struggled to get on top of his breaking ball consistently, but he’s shown enough flashes to think that it could be a legitimate out-pitch in the future. Nesbitt also throws a low-80s changeup. Standing at 6-foot-3, 185 pounds, Nesbitt still has some room to add strength.
