Blanco slashed .305/.385/.505 with four home runs and a 28.4 percent strikeout rate in 30 games for the Florida Complex League Pirates before a hamstring injury ended his season at the beginning of July, MLB Pipeline reports. It's unlikely Blanco makes enough contact to turn into an everyday big leaguer, but he's a fun prospect to dream on because of his 6-foot-7, 243-pound frame and 70-grade raw power. Blanco struck out 37.6 percent of the time as an old-for-the-level 18-year-old in the Dominican Summer League last year and struck out a decent amount again this year as an older player in a rookie league. However, if he's able to maintain his conditioning while improving his hit tool next year in his full-season debut, Blanco's prodigious power would make him a sought after prospect in dynasty leagues.
