Blanks has been out with a shoulder injury and will miss the entire 2012 season. Blanks is hoping to be ready for spring training in 2013. (Updated 05/02/2012)
Injury Report
Shoulder - 60-day DL. Out for season (Updated - 5/2/12)
Fantasy Analysis
Blanks finished with a .200 batting average and no RBI. With him done for the year, Blanks should not be owned in any seasonal format. Heading into next season, Blanks likely won't have much Fantasy value and can be ignored on Draft Day in the majority of leagues. (Updated 05/02/2012).
04/15/2012 00:08 Dodgers' Lilly shines in first start off DL
Ted Lilly pitched seven innings of two-hit ball in his season debut after coming off the disabled list, Matt Kemp hit a pair of two-run homers and Andre Ethier also went deep, leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Saturday night.
Kyle Blanks began last season in the minors while he continued to recover from Tommy John surgery and continued to punish minor-league pitching once returning. He batted a combined .312 with 15 home runs and 62 RBI between two stops and was called up by the Padres in late July. But his struggles in the majors did not change as Blanks hit just .229. While he posted seven home runs, 26 RBI and a .300 on-base percentage in the majors, he could not hit as consistently as he had down on the farm. With the additions of Carlos Quentin and Yonder Alonso in the offseason, Blanks will have to win a starting job during the spring or he could be ticketed to start the 2012 campaign in the minors again. The 25-year-old still has some decent upside at age 25 but plan on leaving Blanks for NL-only formats on Draft Day. (Updated 2/8/12)
