Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Blanco has made just 70 starts across the past seasons but now has 55 steals while primarily serving as a defensive replacement and pinch runner. His bat has actually been solid through 277 plate appearances in his MLB career with a .259/.318/.409 slash line, but most of that success has come against left-handed pitching with an .874 OPS. Blanco could fill a similar role for the Royals in 2025, though that production versus southpaws could help him get more platoon opportunities. Read Past Outlooks
Makes final roster
Blanco has won a spot on the 26-man roster as a reserve outfielder, MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Blanco missed time early in spring training due to right Achilles tightness, but was healthy the past two weeks. He hit .333 (7-for-21) with three stolen bases this spring. He'll work as a reserve for all three out outfield positions and be used as a pinch runner. He could be a good source of stolen bases if he can get enough playing time.
