Ronel Blanco delivered a mixed outing in Friday's 5-3 victory over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed three earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings. Despite not factoring into the decision, Blanco's performance slightly tarnished his stellar early-season stats, bumping his ERA to 2.09 and WHIP to 0.96. His 8.4 K/9 continues to offer fantasy value, though his FIP at 4.06 suggests some potential regression might be lurking. Fantasy managers should monitor if his low .181 BABIP begins to correct itself, potentially leading to more outings like today's as the season progresses.
