Blachowicz stands 5-foot-11, 180-pounds. The right-handed hitter starts from neutral stance with flex in his lower half and his hands in a low position, then loads back relaxed and early as he triggers his hands back and up.

Behind the plate, Blachowicz threw 70 mph from the crouch with pop times of 2.19-2.33.
