When you're at the plate vs. a deGrom or Kershaw type pitcher, what's going through your mind before each pitch?
Nick Ahmed
2:03
Hopefully nothing. Too much thinking is not good. Try to focus on Seeing the Ball and let all my training take over
Peri

Hey Slick Nick! Glad to see you participating in this, as a huge dbacks fan it's been fun seeing you grow all these years and make those incredible plays that defy logic. H

Yes, time to play some defense for real!

As a fielder is there a general public defensive metric you put more stock in or find more accurate?

Thanks for doing this Nick! I was curious what your opinion is on bringing an automated ball strike system to the big leagues and if you would be in favor of it. Thanks!

Salutations Mr. Ahmed, remember watching your brother Mike with A+ Rancho and play nearly every position up to AAA. What passages of scripture  do you lean on in the Bigs? Are they the same from your time as an amateur or the minors?? Godspeed brother

You've mentioned your faith several times here, how does the team help or accommodate spiritual needs of players? Are you allowed to go to church Sunday morning b4 a game for example or are you expected in too late for something like that (or if not Christian, speak from your spiritual background) ?
Nick Ahmed

Cant make it to church but we have chaplains come to the ballpark every sunday for us
U Can at Uconn

Nick, great career so far and looking forward to watching your continued success.  When deciding on your college, how did you choose UCONN and what player development skills did you get from Penders and staff that propelled you into a successful MLB career.  thanks
Nick Ahmed

Only school that offered any opportunity to try to play shortstop. Every other school said I wasn't good enough and only wanted me to pitch
