Gregor Blanco was all set up to be the random hero of the Even Year

STAT LINE: 203 PA (63 games) .217 / .262 / .317, 2 HR, 12 RBI

You know Gregor Blanco, you love Gregor Blanco, but after an uneventful 2018, you probably saw the last of Gregor Blanco in a Giants lineup. And yet, it didn’t have to be this way. If the team had figured out some way of getting into the postseason, it was all set up for him to follow in the line of Ryan Vogelsong, Travis Ishikawa, and Conor Gillaspie, and be the latest Giant-turned-not-Giant-then-turned-back-to-a-Giant-who-has-a-big-game hero, which would’ve meant one more year of him being a major leaguer.
