Position: RHP
High School: Christian County
State Ranking: 57
Position Ranking: 22
Scouting Report: (6/16/15, Top Prospect Games) 6-foot, 180-pounds, athletic frame, quick arm works through a ¾ slot, up tempo delivery and lands square to the plate, arm slot produces natural arm-side run and sink on fastball and locates it well at the bottom of the zone, fastball sat 81-83 mph touching 84, sharp 69 mph curveball with 11/5 action, flashed a 73 mph changeup, struck out one in his two innings of work, fastball movement produces ground ball outs, interesting mound prospect.
Further Analysis: Blane has been a vital performer for Christian County for several years and has competed at a high-level during the summer as a member of the Knights Baseball program, one of the top travel ball programs in Tennessee. His loose and quick arm should translate into more velocity to come for the right-hander.
