Fantasy Impact:
After recovering from right knee inflammation, Blackburn is finally ready to join the Mets. He's been sharp in his minor league rehab assignment, recording a 3.68 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 31 strikeouts over 29.1 innings in seven starts. His return comes with a significant challenge, as he'll face a potent Dodgers lineup that leads the league with an .807 OPS in May.
