TCU’s veteran backstop Colin Blanchard brings plus defense and steady big-conference experience
Colin Blanchard is a senior catcher for TCU who arrived after four seasons at Washington, where he started 55 games, posted a .987 fielding percentage, and showed the kind of defensive reliability coaches love behind the plate. He’s more glove-first than loud bat, but that’s exactly why he matters: he gives a staff a calm, experienced receiver with real college reps, including a TCU debut as a defensive sub in 2026. For a team needing pitch-framing, game-calling, and low-drama consistency, he’s a solid fit.
