Blanks (Achilles) will begin a rehab assignment Wednesday at Triple-A Round Rock, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blanks has been out more than two months with tendinitis in his Achilles, and he'll finally begin a rehab assignment two weeks after being transferred to the 60-day DL. Given the length of his absence, Blanks will likely require at least a handful of rehab appearances.
