  • 1B/RHPPosition Projection

10/07/2018 - National Tryout Plus - Spokane, WA Blake is a strong, well-built 1B/RHP prospect who has a versatile skill set. In the field, Blake plays with active footwork and reads the ball well. He presents his glove and fields the ball in a low position showing a smooth backhand. Blake has a clean exchange leading into a loose arm action throwing from a low 3/4 arm slot. He plays with momentum through the baseball showing online throws across the diamond. Offensively, Blake has an athletic, crouched setup with a centered balance. He has smooth rhythm with a good load and short stride as he partially uses his lower half throughout his swing. He has an on-plane swing path producing square contact. Blake shows power to the pull side. On the mound, Blake keeps his eyes on his target and has on-time mechanics. He throws from a 3/4 arm slot with a clean arm action as he extends through his release. Blake has a controlled landing and is closed to home plate. He pivots off his back foot and finishes with an upright chest. Blake commands his fastball with tail movement. He also locates his curveball with medium break and has a developing changeup. Overall, Blake is a well-rounded prospect who has a potential to get even better.

12/27/2017 - Under Armour Baseball Factory Recruiting Classic (Ages 14-18) Blake is a lean 1B/RHP Kevin who has a promising future on the diamond. At the plate is where he shows best, displaying solid hitting / power potential through an open setup. Hands are quick and work through a compact swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields. Barrel accuracy is a plus and has strength in his swing, displaying gap-to-gap pop. At 1B, he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is clean and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. On the mound, fastball shows a range of 68-73 mph. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup, showing a feel for pitch. Off speed stuff show as quality pitches for the next level. Control is solid as he attacks hitters and through strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and plays the game hard. With 4 years to further develop, Blake has potential with time and room to progress his game.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
