Fantasy Impact:

Blanco will toe the rubber for manager Joe Espada after a strong 2024 season in which the right-hander racked up 166 strikeouts to go along with a 2.80 ERA in 29 starts on the mound. Blanco is an intriguing starting option against a San Francisco lineup off to a slow start to the season.
