Blanco has been really good this season - but even so, he’s under in 5/L10. On paper, this should be a brutal spot for him. The Dodgers are mashing righties: L3 weeks - 134 wRC+, .824 OPS, .216 ISO. In terms of wRAA, the Dodgers are the #1 team against both the slider and changeup, and 11th vs the 4-seamer - Blanco throws the three to put away batters almost equally. Plus, Blanco is 140th of 169 in zone% (for pitchers with 50+ IP). Dodgers have the third lowest chase rate, and the third highest pitches per PA. Plus, Framber just went 6.1 IP after an off day - bullpen should be fresh.
