Humbled to share I’ve joined ESPN.
I’ll contribute as a writer within its college football division, with a focus on national recruiting while also covering the Big Ten.
Really excited to get started and grateful for the help from many people that allowed me to get here.

Job searching isn't easy. Cerebral palsy has made it that much harder for me. Everyone needed help at one point or another to get to where they're at. Appreciate
@PeterVecsey1
for taking the time to listen and being willing offer encouragement my way.
Having a mediocre day? Bad year? Luckless life? Nobody loves you? Read what Blake Baumgartner endures daily yet pushes ahead.

Appreciate the love I've gotten on here after ESPN made my hiring public knowledge today.
I was never totally sure this type of opportunity would come my way.
But I have too many folks in my corner to not keep going.
Can't thank them enough for the encouragement & support.
ESPN has announced the hiring of Blake Baumgartner, who will join its college sports reporting team.
Baumgartner is a Michigan State journalism graduate and has cerebral palsy.

Couldn’t think of anyone I would have rather spent some quality time with - either at the ballpark or workshopping this project - than my cousin Tami
She was my wingwoman for last month’s festivities in Seattle and her feedback in aiding me piecing this together was invaluable.

Enjoyed dealing with & covering him for his two years with Wildcats (2013-14). Class act!

Some personal news: I’ll be a free agent come March.
Forever grateful and in debt to ESPN for believing in my ability and looking beyond what makes me different.
Still looking to prove to myself and others that I’m capable of doing even more.
Hit me up. My door’s wide open.
