INJURIES

Outrighted to Triple-A The Rangers Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com Blanco to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday, mmm reports.
Impact He passed through waivers unclaimed after being removed from the 40-man roster last week. Blanco could decline the assignment since he's been outrighted previously, but it appears he plans to stick around in the organization as outfield depth.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Loses 40-man roster spot The Rangers designated Blanco for assignment Wednesday.
Impact Blanco was sent to minors camp by the Rangers immediately after being claimed off waivers in early March. The speedy outfielder is now set to go through the waivers process again.
MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE
Headed to Triple-A The Rangers optioned Blanco to Triple-A Round Rock after claiming him off waivers from the Royals on Sunday.
Impact The right-handed-hitting Blanco looked like a potential candidate to fill out a short-side platoon role in the Texas outfield, but he won't end up reporting to big-league camp and will instead head to Triple-A to begin the upcoming season. Though Blanco has been a near-league-average hitter over his first four MLB seasons with a 99 wRC+, he fell out of favor with the Royals in 2025, logging just eight plate appearances in the majors while mustering a middling .253/.332/.405 slash line over 77 games at Triple-A Omaha. The Rangers may want to see Blanco show some improvement as a hitter at the Triple-A level before giving him another look in the big leagues.

Lands in Arlington The Rangers claimed Blanco off waivers from the Royals on Sunday.
Impact Though Kansas City him expendable after signing free-agent outfielder Starling Marte, Blanco should be in good position to secure a spot on the Rangers' Opening Day roster. A right-handed hitter with exceptional speed, Blanco could profile as an ideal short-side platoon mate in the outfield for Evan Carter, a career .083 hitter versus left-handed pitching.

Royals sign Starling Marte to a $1M deal; Dairon Blanco designated for assignment

The Kansas City Royals have signed two-time All-Star Starling Marte to a $1 million deal for the upcoming season
MARCH 3 • Associated Press
Scrubbed from 40-man roster The Royals designated Blanco for assignment Monday.
Impact The Royals needed to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Starling Marte, whose signing was officially announced Monday. Known for his blazing speed, Blanco has stolen 59 bases in the majors despite receiving only 285 plate appearances. The 32-year-old could draw interest on waivers from a team seeking outfield depth.
MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Saturday Blanco (head) will start in left field and bat ninth in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Rockies.
Impact Blanco made two plate appearances off the bench in Friday's contest -- his first spring action since he was hit in the head by a pitch in Sunday's game. The 32-year-old outfielder will now return to the starting nine and continue his pursuit of a spot on Kansas City's Opening Day bench.

Impact Blanco was struck in the helmet by a pitch during Sunday's Cactus League game against the Brewers. He will continue to be evaluated but appears to have avoided a serious injury. The speedy Blanco is competing for a reserve role with the Royals.
FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE
Headed for further evaluation Blanco is being sent for further evaluation after getting struck in the helmet by a pitch during Sunday's Cactus League game against the Brewers, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
Impact Blanco was initially able to remain in the game after being checked out by a team trainer, but manager Matt Quatraro noted after the exhibition that Blanco is headed for further evaluation after experiencing dizziness. He can be considered day-to-day until further notice.
FEBRUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE
Sent to Triple-A The Royals optioned Blanco to Triple-A Omaha on Monday.
Impact With top prospect Jac Caglianone receiving a call-up to the big leagues and likely to take on an everyday role in the corner outfield, Blanco became an expandable piece for the Royals. Since being activated May 16 following a stint on the injured list, Blanco appeared in just six of the Royals' ensuing 15 games and went 1-for-5 with a double and an RBI while going 1-for-3 in stolen-base attempts.

MAY 18, 2025 • Associated Press
Activated from injured list The Royals activated Blanco (Achilles) from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Impact Blanco has been shelved for most of the season with right Achilles tendinopathy but is ready to return after playing 12 rehab games. The speedster will likely operate in a reserve role for now, but there's potential for him to move up the depth chart amidst a Royals outfield lacking talent.
