Fantasy Impact:

Blanco broke out in 2024 but led qualified starters with a 10.1% walk rate—dodging damage with a .187 BABIP with runners on and .160 with RISP, luck he won’t bank on in 2025, shifting to a less finicky approach for more strikes. Fantasy managers can ride his upside as a mid-rotation arm; this tweak could steady his star turn.
