8/16/15 - The 6-foot-2, 184-pound lefty displays a solid athletic frame. Nace showed good feel for all pitches. He does a good job at establishing the fastball for strikes and using his 12/6 curveball to keep hitters off balance at the plate. Throwing from high-¾ arm slot with shorter arm action, the lefty’s fastball sat at 76-78 mph and varied between arm-side run and cutting action. Curveball thrown from the 12/6 trajectory was effective against hitters sitting at 68-69mph. Changeup sat at 72mph with arm side sinking movement. Nace threw two innings allowing two hits while striking out two. He showed slightly better velocity at the Top Prospect Games in June with a fastball that topped at 81mph.
