That could change given his torrid June, in which he has gone 11-for-28 (.393) with two homers, including a 4-for-5 showing Sunday.

He is unowned in ESPN leagues and owned by 1 per cent of CBS leagues, but the man whose name translates to Greg White in English has actually been remarkable in his full outings. Blanco has five multi-hit games in his last six starts, and is 14 for his last 31 overall (.452), with a respectable OPS of 688 for the season and six stolen bases.
