Blum is a 6-foot-2, 210-pound righthanded reliever who has pitched exclusively out of the bullpen for USC over the last three seasons and in 2024 put together a career-best campaign with a 1.87 ERA over 33.2 innings with a 32.8% strikeout rate and 8% walk rate. He pitched primarily off of a low-80s slider that he threw more than 70% of the time this spring, but has a fastball that sits 92-93 mph and has been up to 96 with above-average riding life. While Blum doesn’t have a true out pitch, his solid fastball/slider combination and strong track record of missing bats could make him a day three target.
