11/06/2016 - College PREP - Vinton (Roanoke), VA Blake is a tall, lean SS who will graduate in 2019. Foot speed is solid as indicated by his 60 time of 7.28. In the MIF, feet are active as he works around balls and plays through with momentum to his target. He catches everything showing a soft glove and presents well out front. Range is a plus as he moves well laterally. Throws are accurate but needs to work to get rid of the baseball quicker and build more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate he is a switch hitter that currently projects best from the right side. As a RHH, hands are loose and work to and through an aggressive swing path. He works to stay inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. From the left side, he makes consistent contact through an uphill swing path. With 3 years to further develop, Blake has abilities with time and room to progress his game.
