| Michael Brantley finding extra bases |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/1/13) Indians outfielder Michael Brantley hit his first home run of the season Tuesday against the Phillies, a sign that he has found his stroke. Brantley opened the season with one extra-base hit (double) in 50 at-bats.
But in the last nine games, Brantley has four doubles, a triple and a home run in 41 at-bats, with seven RBI. Brantley has improved his batting averag from .240 to .286, putting him right in line with preseason expectations.

| Cleveland outfielder Michael Brantley has seen a steady rise in production over the past three seasons, with a boost in playing time bringing with it a higher average, better walk rate, and, obviously, more counting stats. Brantley isn't the most exciting player -- his ceiling is maybe eight home runs and maybe 15 steals -- but he can be a surprisingly decent force in doubles (he hit 37 last year) and has a nice enough strikeout-to-walk ratio to provide some value in deeper points leagues. Roto owners may not be able to find room for Brantley in starting lineups, but he could be good bench depth as a dependable bat that won't hurt many teams. He should be a late-round pick in AL-only drafts. (Updated 12/5/12) |
