Kyle Blanks' future is 'right in front of him'
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(12:20 pm ET) Padres outfielder Kyle Blanks is beginning to come around offensively. He's batting .308 (4 for 13) with two home runs and five RBI in his last four games, prompting manager Bud Black to say a great opportunity awaits Blanks.

"His future is right in front of him, and it's bright, as long as we can keep him on the field," Black said during an interview with MLB Network Radio.

Kyle Blanks lifts off vs. Nationals
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(5/19/13) Padres outfielder Kyle Blanks reached base twice as he launched his third home run of the season Sunday afternoon against the Nationals.

Blanks took starter Dan Haren deep for a two-run home run in the fifth inning. He finished 1 for 3 with a walk, two runs scored and two RBI in a 13-4 victory.

Blanks is hitting .308 (4 for 13) with two homers and five RBI in his last four games.
Give Kyle Blanks a look
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(5/16/13) Padres outfielder Kyle Blanks hit his second home run of the season Wednesday, snapping an 0-for-6 slide that saw his batting average drop more than 40 points.

Blanks is hitting .250 in 20 appearances, and our Nando Di Fino thinks he might be worth a look in NL-only Fantasy formats, in his latest Waiver Wire column. Nando is banking on Blanks turning his gaudy minor-league numbers into something resembling production at the major-league level, so Wednesday's home run is certainly a start.

Blanks isn't the safest option, but he is just 26 years old with upside, on an offense-starved team. If he can start hitting the ball reasonably well, Fantasy owners looking for a punch in NL-only formats might want to keep an eye on him. 

Kyle Blanks ends home run drought
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(5/15/13) Padres outfielder Kyle Blanks hit a solo home run and finished 1 for 5 with two runs Wednesday at Baltimore. Blanks homered for the second time this season and first time in 16 games.

Since batting .455 in his first four games, Blanks is batting .195 (8 for 41) in his last 16 games, dropping his average to .250.

Kyle Blanks available for Padres
by Ed Gauna | CBSSports.com
(4/24/13) Padres outfielder Kyle Blanks is available for the club after crashing into the outfield wall over the weekend, MLB.com reports. He said that his shoulder is still sore but it won't keep him from playing.

The 26-year-old was out of the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers. 

Blanks, who received four stitches as a result of the collision, does not stand to see a ton of playing time going forward with Carlos Quentin back from suspension.
