Lucas Nawrocki is a 2026 LHP/1B/OF with a 5-11 190 lb. frame from Aledo, TX who attends Aledo. Compact and strong build. Two-way potential as a hitter and left handed pitcher. Works from a coiled wind up on the mound with a long and extended arm swing in back, whippy arm coming through to a 3/4's arm slot. Fastball was up to 94 with 2700+ rpm spin and some late life in both directions. Low 80's slider was an outstanding pitch with huge depth and up to 3200 rpm spin, commanded his slider well and created some ugly swings and bad takes. Left handed hitter, sets up in a slightly open stance with a short stride into contact, big hand hitch timer, lofted swing path with lots of bat speed and hard pull side contact, gets to his strength well. 7.00 runner in the sixty. Clone of MLB reliever A.J. Minter at the same age. Good student.
