Cornell Nixon is a 2013 MIF/RHP with a 5-10 170 lb. frame from Marietta, GA who attends Lassiter HS. Shorter compact build, has some present strength. Quick twitch athlete, 6.56 runner, throws 93 across the infield with long release and effort, much better playing within his envelope, quick feet and balance, has been outstanding at second base in the past, no question centerfield would come naturally, too, middle of the field athlete defensively. Right handed hitter, quick hands, gets barrel out well on velocity, quick and short to the ball, some looseness out front, has the bat speed to drive the ball to the alleys. Also pitched, fastball to 88 mph, showed his arm strength, raw mechanics. Good student, verbal commitment to Kennesaw State.
