Travis Blankenhorn Fantasy Stats

The Los Angeles Angels have signed Travis Blankenhorn to a minor-league contract. Last summer, Blankenhorn spent 13 games in the major leagues with Washington. Across this small stint, Blankenhorn held a .129/.156/.161 slash line. In 106 games at Triple-A, Blankenhorn posted a .238/.322/.499 slash line with 22 doubles and 26 home runs. He held a 41:118 BB:K and swiped two bags. Across 49 career MLB contests, Blankenhorn has tallied just 14 hits, with only six of them going for extra bases. Fantasy managers should expect the 28-year-old to operate in a depth role at the Triple-A level. He could return to the majors when the Angels need additional outfield depth. However, given his lack of consistent success in the majors, he is not worth targeting any format.

New York Mets utility man Travis Blankenhorn played a key role in the comeback win over the Pittsburgh Pirates Sunday, hitting a pinch-hit three-run home run off of Pirates starter J.T. Brubaker in the fourth inning. It was his first major-league home run. Blankenhorn has enjoyed some success in his limited action this year, going 3-for-13 with four runs scored and four RBI. There doesn't appear to be a path to enough playing time to make him a viable fantasy option.

New York Mets second baseman Travis Blankenhorn was recalled from Triple-A on Friday. The 24-year-old, who was optioned just two weeks ago, will suit up for another stint with the big club after Jonathan Villar (calf) was placed on the 10-day injured reserve. The 24-year-old hasn't done much outside of Syracuse, compiling just one hit throughout seven at-bats in the majors this season, so fantasy managers looking to fill a void caused by Villar's absence should certainly look elsewhere.

Minnesota Twins second baseman/outfielder Travis Blankenhorn has been summoned to the active roster ahead of Mondays contest against the White Sox and will make his Major League debut when he first gets into action. Blankenhorn has never played above Double-A, having compiled a .787 OPS across two Minor League levels last year. Ranked as the clubs No. 18 prospect per MLB Pipeline, Minnesotas decision to bring up Blankenhorn will likely be short-lived, as the team is without Miguel Sano (neck), Eddie Rosario (elbow), and Marwin Gonzalez (illness) for at least Mondays outing.
