Draft Prospects
The Yankees drafted Nardi in the 39th round out of Ventura (Calif.) JC as a reliever in 2017. He then transferred 26 miles east to Moorpark (Calif.) JC for his sophomore year in order to start and raise his draft stock. At Moorpark, Nardi went 6-4, 2.48 with 91 strikeouts in 80 innings. Nardi is an athletic, 6-foot-3 lefthander with some physical projection and a three-pitch mix, although his pitch quality varies wildly. He sat 88-90 mph and touched 92 in the fall but dropped to 84-88 mph in the spring, scraping the occasional 90 mph fastball. He lands his mid-70s curveball for strikes as his primary secondary offering, with some evaluators projecting it to become an average pitch in the future. His changeup is below-average. Nardi's crossfire delivery and high leg kick adds deception, but it hampers his control and command. Nardi shows ingredients to start, but his overall inconsistency has most evaluators projecting him to the bullpen. He is committed to Arizona.
