“I first started to work with Nello in early 2022 when I was 8 years into my professional baseball career. “As a player there are a few key things you look for in agent representation, someone who is well-connected and respected in the MLB, personable, dedicated to their work, and most importantly, a great communicator. Nello is everything listed and more. I could not be where I am today without Nello’s representation. He’s an incredibly hard worker and is always looking out for the player’s best interest. I am extremely blessed to be represented by Nello and NPG Sports!”
Eric Stout
( CTBC Brothers, Taiwan (former Royals, Cubs, Pirates MLB) )
“Choosing Nello was an easy decision for me going into the draft and for my professional career. His knowledge, honesty, and professionalism are what makes him the best person to work with. I think what’s important is having a personal relationship and a business relationship and with Nello you get the best of both. Could not be happier to have Nello representing me and my family, I can always count on him.”
Louie Varland
( Minnesota Twins )
“I wasn’t a high draft pick or a big prospect and Nello took a chance on me. He has done everything in his power to help facilitate my career, protect my family, and promote me as an athlete. His smaller client list allows him to have personal relationships with his athletes. Nello is not just my agent, he’s a friend and a part of our baseball family. It would be hard to imagine the Big Leagues without him.”
Spencer Patton
( Oakland Athletics )
“I could not have asked for a better person to represent me and help me start my professional career. Nello always has his athletes’ best interest in mind and will do whatever he can to help each of them succeed. He is extremely organized, knowledgeable, respectful, and has earned the trust of me and my family 100%. He does all that you can ask for and then some. NPG Sports is the way to go!”
Terrin Vavra
( Baltimore Orioles )
“We could not be happier from a business and personal point of view to have chosen Nello to represent me. He has many respected clients but his promptness and hard work truly makes me feel like me and my family are the only ones. He is amazing at what he does for me and my career, but also what he does for my family. I know I can count of him to take care of whatever we would need.”
Jared Wells
( Retired MLB Pitcher; Team USA for 2005 World Cup )
“When I was looking for an agent in 2012, Nello immediately stood out from the rest. I was drafted in the 4th round, and ever since then he checks in weekly to catch up and talk about how things are going, giving that personal attention and support you need to keep you going on this journey. I am blessed to call Nello my friend.”
Justin Chigbogu
( 2012 4th round draft pick of the Los Angeles Dodgers )
“You do a commendable job representing your players and staying in contact to see if opportunities arise as landscapes with clubs are constantly in flux. I appreciate your approach and communication.”
Brian Chattin
( Assistant GM, Miami Marlins )
“Nello was recommended to me by a college teammate who had already hired him as his agent. It’s one of the best decisions I’ve made in my professional career. He makes my life easy and frees up my mind to focus on just baseball. I was considering a couple of larger agencies and I’m happy I chose Nello instead. I now have not only a knowledgeable and experienced baseball agent, but a good friend as well.”
Kyle Hart
( NC Dinos, Korea (former Red Sox MLB) )
“Nello has been representing me for a year now and it’s the best experience I’ve ever had. His relationship with his clients is remarkable. He feels more like family than an agent and I wouldn’t want anyone else representing me. He’s a great agent and even a better person!”
Chris Mazza
( MLB Free Agent RHP )
“Thanks for being the best agent. I keep hearing guys complain about theirs and how they wanna fire them because they don’t care or reach out to them ever about anything . . .and just suck. You’ve helped me more than you know. So again, thank you for being you!”
