A rare eye disease might have put right-hander Ryne Nelson on his path to the Diamondbacks.
When right-hander Ryne Nelson looked in for the sign, he was pretty sure he saw just one finger. It soon became clear his catcher had not called for a fastball.
Nelson, 25, enters spring training as a leading candidate to claim the Diamondbacks’ open rotation spot. Multiple publications have him ranked among baseball’s Top 100 prospects. The problems first arose during his sophomore season. Nelson tried contact lenses but still experienced occasional blurriness. He shifted to glasses. They were better but still not perfect. Getting signs from his catcher became a constant challenge.
Eye doctors had told him the issue could be corrected with surgery, but he did not learn about his keratoconus until the following year. He learned the process for surgery would be drawn out.
