School: Cal State Fullerton Source: 4YR
Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 20.7
Nankil is a solidly-built right fielder with a 6-foot-3, 191-pound frame. He was a modest producer in his first two seasons and struggled with strikeout rates over 20%, but he took a step forward in that category in his 2023 campaign. He hit .316/.384/.468 with five home runs, 21 doubles and a career-low 13.7% strikeout rate. Nankil operates with a low handset in his offensive operation, and swings with an uphill bat path but his exit velocities were just OK and his swing is more strength-based than built around bat speed. He has a plus arm from right field and could profile there if he finds a way to get to more of the raw power he possesses in games.
