07/29/2015 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City - Session 1 Tim continues to shine on the diamond. He is a very coachable player who works hard day in and day out. As a hitter, this strong lefty has an athletic/balanced setup with a strong base. He whips the barrel through the zone and connects with hard contact, using the whole field. Behind the dish, Tim sits in well with athletic actions and flexion. He sticks pitches in the zone and frames well. Transfer/exchange is smooth/quick as puts strong throws (84 mph) on the bag (pop times of 1.99). Runners will not want to test his cannon for an arm. Blankenberger is a versatile athlete who can make things happen on the diamond. LHH catchers are a hot commodity - he will get a lot of looks to take his game to the next level.
