    Bloss pitched for Lafayette for three seasons before transferring to Georgetown as a graduate student for the 2023 season. He’s been a consistent starter for the program and posted a 2.58 ERA over 13 starts and 76.2 innings, with a 31.4% strikeout rate and 7.8% walk rate in what was the best season of his college career. Standing at 6-foot-3, 205 pounds, Bloss utilizes a four-pitch mix and attacks from a three-quarter slot. His fastball sits 91-93 mph and has been up to 96-97, and he also works in a low-80s slider, a mid-70s curveball with 12-to-6 shape and solid spin and a mid-to-upper-80s changeup that’s a distant fourth offering for now. Bloss will be 22 on draft day and could be a senior target on day two.
