07/17/2023 - National Showcase - Highland Park (DFW), TX Blayne is a 3B/RHP prospect who will graduate in 2027. A young/developing player with strength present and plenty of room to add throughout. At 3B, he works to center the baseball and plays with good effort/energy. Works into an athletic fielding position with good glove actions and soft hands out front. Made accurate throws to first base from multiple arm slots, with a quick release, and an arm velocity up to 79mph. On the mound, he gathers over the rubber and uses his lower half well. He has a simple and repeatable delivery. He attacks hitters with a FB that sits 75-77mph with plus command, a breaking ball with 11/5 shape, and a changeup he throws with FB arm speed that has some sinking action. CH was best pitch during his bullpen session. At the plate, he hits from a tall and square stance. A simple setup to start and takes an aggressive swing. Keeps bat flat in the zone for a long time and made consistent contact. During his round of BP, he hit line drives into both gaps with a bat exit velocity up to 81mph. With 4 years of continued growth and development, we foresee him making huge strides on the baseball field.

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).
