Blake
Tablazon

Lean and athletic at 5-foot-6, 150 pounds. Switch hitter at the plate. As a RHH, starts with flexion in back leg in an open stance before taking a low, controlled leg lift. Not as much lift on this look compared to what we saw in the fall. The lower forward move helps him land soft & maintain control of the barrel. Loose, whippy barrel into contact. Taller, more centered set-up from the left-side with direction towards pitcher. Hands use a short, compact load then work uphill into contact. Moves well in the INF defensively, showing confident pace and consistent body control. Gets to the stop in rhythm with the ball then works thru the play. Short levers allow him to funnel in easy then exchange into throwing motion. Bend arm action with a ¾ release point.

Compact, athletic frame with a wiry build at 5-foot-6, 150 pounds. Offensively has the benefit of being a switch hitter. From the right side, sets up with a slightly open, relaxed set up with upright posture. Keeps weight centered as he gets into a high leg lift. Tight load with upper half keeps everything short & quick to the ball. Flat barrel path into contact with mostly line-drive contact. From the left side, shows a similar set up but with a closed off lower half to begin. Leg lift isn’t quite as aggressive but he maintains the same simple actions with his hands & barrel. Swing path has slightly more lift at contact, especially fo pull-side. Defensively, showed well at SS with quick, choppy actions and footwork. Uses a pre-pitch hop leading up to contact. Moves easily and is light on his feet. Capable of playing low and staying down on the ball. Quickness in hands on the exchange into throwing motion. Circular arm path into a ¾ release.
