Royals outfielder Dairon Blanco is not in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Pirates.
Fantasy Impact

The rookie speedster has swiped 17 bags in just 49 games this season while his 99 wRC+ suggests his production has more or less been league-average in his first year in the bigs.

Fantasy Impact
Blanco didn't start Wednesday's contest but was caught stealing as a pinch runner in the ninth inning, a crucial moment in a tight 4-3 loss. The speedster does have 12 steals in just 36 appearances on the season but is hitting just .237 without a homer in that time.

Fantasy Impact
Blanco started in right field on Monday night, going 0-for-3 with a stolen base as part of the Royals' 5-3 win. He will take a seat on Tuesday as he's hit .220 but showed off plenty of speed with eight stolen bases across 64 plate appearances.
