04/05/2024 - All-Ripken Games - Myrtle Beach, SC Blayden is a 1B/P who had a good showing at the PreSeason All-Ripken Games in Myrtle Beach highlighted by a double and triple in game play. He showed the ability to use the whole field and will improve his consistency at the plate with a more compact stroke that has a full finish through contact and simplified movement. We like his aggressive approach and want him to continue to take a hack at pitches he can drive. Defensively, Blayden is solid around the bat at 1B, provides a good target and makes the routine plays. He got on the mound and attacked hitters from different arm angles with a fastball/curveball repertoire. With a tall, projectable frame, it will be fun to watch Blayden continue to develop on the diamond.
