Tallwood freshman, Blake Thomas, brings us to the end of the Winter Uncommitted Spotlight Series. The 2026 right-hander had an impressive performance in the late fall at the Mid-Atlantic State Games and the combination of his pitchability, easy effort, and ability to spin for strikes makes him a very intriguing 2026 to keep an eye on this spring/summer and beyond.
