Fantasy Analysis

Blanton had one of his better seasons in the majors this year, winning 12 games and striking out 7.5 batters per nine innings. He's no ace, but as long as he's pitching for the contending Phillies next season, he's worth a middle-round pick in 2010.
(Updated 11/02/2009).

Blanton was picked to start Game 4 of the World Series for the defending champion Philadelphia Phillies. (Updated 10/30/2009)

Advice

Manager Charlie Manuel said Friday he will go with Blanton against the New York Yankees rather than ace Cliff Lee on short rest. Lee, who has never pitched on three days' rest, is slated to start Game 5.
