The Rockies announced today that they have signed Jack Blomgren, a shortstop from the University of Michigan and their sixth-round pick.
Vice President of Scouting Bill Schmidt said of Blomgren, “I think what he has inside of him is real special.”
He continued, “I think he’s a tough competitor that is all about winning. I think he’s about making other people around him better. As far as what goes on on the field, I think he’s a very steady player. There’s nothing really flashy, but when he gets between the lines, he’s trying to beat you.
