Why? His ability to pitch while having quality stuff, but its the frame that intrigues me.  I think he has the chance to sit 91-93 within the next year or two.

I remember Jason Parks talking about about how Nicolino was able to "manipulate" the ball.  What is he referring to?   "Mike (utica): what is your take on noah syndergaard, justin nicolino, and daniel norris. Who do you like the best and what is their ceilings? Jason Parks: I really like all three, but I prefer the lefties, especially Nicolino. Being able to manipulate the ball while maintaining control is an art that even major league pitchers struggle with. Nicolino might lack crazy great stuff, but his pitchability is quite advanced. Given his projectable frame, I think the stuff will continue to improve as well. He could be a monster. Huge fan." Question for anyone out there.
