The Harrisburg Senators activated OF Tony Blanco for the DL and sent OF Reggie Fitzpatrick to Vermont. Blanco, a former Rule V pic from Cincinnati, will begin his season as the Senators continue their road trip in Akron tonight against the Aeros.
Blanco is a promising power hitting prospect for the Nationals. He can really hit the fastball but has problems with breaking stuff. He only had limited exposure last year (177/215/254) in only 62AB, mostly as a PH. This delayed the development time for this 24-year old. He’ll need to make immediate strides if he hopes to remain in the Nationals’ plans.
