Gregor Blanco News
San Francisco Giants outfielder Austin Jackson(groin) will sit out Thursday evening. Jackson left late in Wednesdays game with groin tightness. Manager Bruce Bochy said that Jackson was removed as a precaution and it makes sense for him to sit out Thursday. Gregor Blanco will replace Jackson and bat eighth. Jackson will look to get back on the field Friday.
Free-agent outfielder Gregor Blanco has agreed to a contract to return to the San Francisco Giants. The 34-year-old spent 2017 with the Arizona Diamondbacks after winning two World Series with the Giants from 2012-2016. Blanco announced the news on his Instagram account and it is likely a minor league deal. The career .257 hitter will likely compete for the fourth outfield spot and will have a tough competition with Mac Williamson and Jarrett Parker. Aside from daily leagues, Blanco holds no value in fantasy leagues.
The Arizona Diamondbacks will be without outfielder David Peralta for the next couple of games. Peralta remains an underrated fantasy outfielder in a potent lineup. In his place tonight and leading off will be outfielder Gregor Blanco. Blanco is in the midst of a cold streak and can remain on the waiver wire. Peralta shouldn't miss more than three games.
