Ronel Blanco pitched 5.2 innings, allowing two earned runs on four hits and four walks while striking out five in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a somewhat shaky control that led to four walks, Blanco managed to limit the damage and secure his fifth win of the season. His ERA slightly rose to 2.23, but it remains impressive, as does his WHIP, which hovers just above 1.00. While his FIP suggests some regression might be on the horizon, his ability to maintain a low BABIP and a decent strikeout rate should keep him relevant in fantasy lineups. Owners should continue to monitor his walk rates, but for now, Blanco remains a solid starting option in most formats.
