Bradley Christopher Blalock (born December 25, 2000) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers of Major League Baseball (MLB). He made his MLB debut in 2024.

Career

Blalock attended Grayson High School in Loganville, Georgia. He was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the 32nd round of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[1]

On August 1, 2023, the Red Sox traded Blalock to the Milwaukee Brewers for Luis Urías.[2] On November 13, the Brewers added Blalock to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[3]

He was optioned to the Double–A Biloxi Shuckers to begin the 2024 season.[4] 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.[5] However, he did not play in a game, and was optioned back to Biloxi on May 24, becoming a phantom ballplayer.[6] On June 19, Blalock was promoted to the major leagues for the second time.[7]
