Latest News
| Two hits for Michael Brantley against Tigers |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(5/12/13) Indians outfielder Michael Brantley went 2 for 4 in a victory Sunday against Detroit.
Brantley had a run, RBI and a walk. His two hits were singles. He has lacked power this year, with a .388 slugging percentage, but his .306 average and .365 on-base percentage have set the table for the rest off the Indians' lineup.

| 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.
Brantley has yet to steal a base, but he's productive otherwise. He is a useful AL-only Fantasy option, and he's starting to look intriguing in deeper mixed-league formats.

| Michael Brantley doubles twice in blowout win |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4/30/13) Indians outfielder Michael Brantley went 3 for 5 with two doubles in Cleveland's 9-0 romp Monday over Kansas City.
Brantley scored twice and raised his line to .291/.371/.372. Power has been slow to come for Brantley -- he now has six extra-base hits but is still without a home run. He has just 13 home runs over the past two seasons (1,003 at-bats), so a month-long home run drought isn't particularly out of the ordinary for Brantley.

| Michael Brantley supplies offense for Cleveland |
by Ed Gauna | CBSSports.com
(4/28/13) Indians outfielder Michael Brantley extended his modest hitting streak to five games Saturday night against the Royals. He went 2 for 5 with two RBI in the 3-2 loss.
The 25-year-old doubled to lead off the eighth inning before driving in two with a triple in the ninth.
Brantley is batting .348 (8 for 23) during his streak with five RBI and three runs scored.

| 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) |
