Hood Community College.

But his minor league stat line suggests he projects as a good contact hitter. And his defensive prowess will be a force, as shown by a highlight-reel throw from right field to save a run.— Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) May 26, 2026In the minor leagues, he hit .290 and drove in 93 runs across 306 games and multiple levels of the minor leagues. He also had more walks (201) than he had strikeouts (174). What he didn't have was power. In those 306 games, he only hit two home runs.Whether he sticks as a starter with a high batting average or ends up becoming a defensive replacement, Nishida has found a spot in the outfield in the Major Leagues, and just adds to the crop of players making an impression in Chicago.
