Uncommitted Spotlight: Haberthier Has The Frame and Projectability

LAKOTA - The motto is simple.

“I can do anything as long as I put the work in.”

That adage is what Nate Haberthier lives by. It has also been a big part of helping the Lakota East sophomore gain notoriety on the baseball field.

“I tell colleges I’ll work as hard as I have to,” the 25th-ranked player in Ohio’s 2020 class said.

Ohio State, Ohio U and Tennessee headline a large group of colleges showing an Interest in the big right-hander. Xavier, Dayton and Miami are also in the mix after seeing Haberthier at a Flames Showcase.

“Most of them like my frame and my projectability,” the 6-5 205-pounder noted. “They also like where I’m at with my speed right now.”

At the 2017 Underclass Trials II first session this past summer, Haberthier was among the best in three categories: most projectable arm, best fastball and best movement on fastball. It has the hard-throwing Haberthier invited to the upcoming Top Prospect Games in June.
