First-round draft pick Nimmala fits right in with Blue Jays organization. MORE:
"The experience was surreal. I couldn't have scripted it a better way," Nimmala said in a video conference on Wednesday from Dunedin, Fla., as he visited the Blue Jays' minor-league complex."All the guys, the coaches, Mark Shapiro, Ross Atkins, they were super kind and they welcomed me with open arms.Nimmala's visit to Toronto was the first time he met with Atkins in person and the new Blue Jays prospect made a great first impression on the GM.
"We were as excited as we could be, but then taking another step and having that experience with him here in Toronto was exceptional for me." He hit .382 with 22 doubles, three triples, and nine home runs across 77 career games at the high school level."The high finish that has a little bit of an abruptness to it at the end has some unique nature to it," said Atkins."I think there's some other players — I'm not comparing him to these guys — but Julio Rodriguez, Mookie Betts, have a little bit of a higher finish with a little bit more of an abrupt finish.
