Hopefully he is not just like his name and fades out fast

They'll probably be making cards of this kid later this year or next

He looks like Sean Burroughs at the same age...perhaps he will go further.

"...If you search hard enough on the internet, you can also find photos of Jordan, now 15, working out this past winter with Albert Pujols. And plenty of other videos of tape-measure homers..."

After working out with Blaze, Pujols said:
"Just keep your swing simple. I don't see anything you need to change."

Somehow I thought he plays NBA.... Jordan.. LOL

If not people will be selling his junior high school yearbook.

The first video was cool, but my first reaction was meh, aluminum bat.

The second was way more impressive. No ping, so not aluminum, but 500 off a wood bat? The sound wasn't really right for wood either, some sort of composite?

Rice supposedly hit at least one around 450 in HS.

Good story and videos of Blaze. He can really crush the ball. Thats quite the compliment from Pujols.

100% composite bat, looks like a Easton Mako XL. A star ten year old can hit the ball 250 feet plus with these Composite bats. These bats are no longer being used in Little League and other charted organizations. The new USA bat standards make all aluminum bats preform like wood. A 12 year old Little League player during the US regional championship hit a home run 375 feet with a full Composite bat. Not impressed

I still say meh. Let him hit a big league slider that far, then we'll talk.

People said all this about Bryce Harper too. He won an MVP.

...which is why I am now impressed by Bryce Harper :)

bump as he just signed a contract with the Boston Red Sox.
I could see him hitting homers over the Green Monster.

At the rate MLB and the player’s union are going there won’t be a league by the time he is out of high school.

KCRfan1 06-25-2020 03:51 PM

It won't be long before the kid has different colored cards, each color signed in limited quantities, ready for savvy investors at $1k each.

He is a dime a dozen player right now.
