Career

[edit]

Boston Red Sox

[edit]

Blalock attended Grayson High School in Loganville, Georgia. He was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the 32nd round, with the 977th overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[1] Blalock made his professional debut with the rookie–level Gulf Coast League Red Sox, logging a 6.75 ERA in 4 games (3 starts). He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

Blalock spent the 2021 campaign with the Single–A Salem Red Sox, making 23 starts and compiling a 3–6 record and 4.27 ERA with 85 strikeouts over 86+13 innings pitched.[3] He underwent Tommy John surgery in March 2022, and missed the entirety of the season as a result.[4] Blalock began the 2023 season with Salem, and was promoted to the High–A Greenville Drive after four starts. In seven starts for Greenville, he recorded a 5–1 record and 2.55 ERA with 36 strikeouts across 35+13 innings pitched.[5]

Milwaukee Brewers

[edit]

On August 1, 2023, the Red Sox traded Blalock to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for Luis Urías.[6] He made 4 starts for the High–A Wisconsin Timber Rattlers down the stretch, posting a 5.27 ERA with 17 strikeouts across 13+23 innings.[7] On November 13, the Brewers added Blalock to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[8]

He was optioned to the Double–A Biloxi Shuckers to begin the 2024 season.[9] In 7 starts for Biloxi, he recorded a 2.27 ERA with 29 strikeouts across 35+23 innings pitched. On May 20, 2024, Blalock was promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[10] However, he did not play in a game, and was optioned back to Biloxi on May 24, becoming a phantom ballplayer.[11] On June 19, Blalock was promoted to the major leagues for the second time,[12] and he made his MLB debut the following day.

Colorado Rockies

[edit]

On July 27, 2024, Blalock and Yujanyer Herrera were traded to the Colorado Rockies in exchange for Nick Mears.[13]
