Latest Fantasy Rumors
Named AL POTW
Blanco was named the American League Player of the Week on Monday, reports Chandler Rome of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
It's a well-earned honor for the right-hander, who delivered a no-hitter in his season debut against Toronto and followed up with six scoreless innings at Texas. Blanco didn't begin the season with much hype at the back end of Houston's rotation, but he's been electric through two starts and has provided a much-needed boost to an injury-riddled staff.
