Nunnallee is a 6-foot-1, 180-pound catcher and lefthanded hitter with some positional versatility and a chance to hit for a solid average with solid raw power to go with it. He has fast hands in the batter’s box with a level swing that can get overly long and rotational at times, though he makes plenty of contact and has respectable swing decisions. With a bit more loft in his bat path and a bit more strength that should come on his frame in the near future it would not be surprising for him to start tapping into more home run pop. He has a chance to catch but will need to improve a fringe-average arm to control the run game and he runs well enough to easily handle an outfield corner and potentially play center field as well. Nunnallee is committed to Virginia.
