This looks like a 2017 Card, which means it will be a CF card. His defensive metrics were not terrible that year, right around average. With it being an awards card (juiced) I could see the defense being upper 70’s or low 80’s. Across the board.
For reference, his 2017 defensive stats are better than Mcutchens 2014 defensive stats (Also a SS card), go the baseball reference to check. So there is the defensive baseline.

How can you tell it’s a 2017 version? You’d think if he was a CF, they wouldn’t show him in RF during the clip but I know that’s not a clear cut way of determining things.

The end of the video clip it shows the card art, it says 2017 on the top and center field on the bottom. It was also his best year.
Also SDS misses so many things in these clip and in general, seems like they don’t have enough peer reviews.

Wow that’s exciting. I’ve wanted a FB of his with more speed for years. This card will be useable in the field at least.

I've always crushed with Blackmon but his glove is what keeps him on the bench. If they go this route hopefully his defense is at least playable, doubt it though.
I feel like he was passable a few years ago because of his speed in real life. Hopefully it reflects
If this is truly a 2017 version of him, he was a monster that year. He also wasn't a complete abomination in the outfield so maybe he sneaks into the 70's with fielding? Maybe lol probably still a horrible fielder.
