| Manager, GM talk about Lonnie Chisenhall's demotion |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com (5/14/13) Indians general manager Chris Antonetti said he still believes third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall will be a part of the team's future, according to Cleveland.com.
"We believe Lonnie is going to be a very good major-league player," Antonetti said. He added that Chisenhall needs to work on "finding consistency in all parts of his game" while he's in the minors.
Manager Terry Francona said Chisenhall's slump was starting to affect him. Chisenhall hit .213/.253/.351 in 94 at-bats in the majors this year.

| Lonnie Chisenhall demoted to minors |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com (5/13/13) Indians third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall was demoted to Triple-A Columbus prior to Monday's doubleheader against the Yankees, according to WTAM 1100. Chisenhall hit .213 with three home runs and 11 RBI in 26 games.
Mark Reynolds drew the start at third base in Game 1 of Monday's doubleheader. Mike Aviles has also started at third base for Cleveland this season.

| Lonnie Chisenhall getting left behind |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/7/13) With a left-handed pitcher on the mound, the Indians opted to give Lonnie Chisenhall the day off. Given the way his career has progressed, that should continue to be the norm. All signs are pointing to Chisenhall as a player with too drastic a platoon split for the everyday role that the organization wanted.
Chisenhall is batting just .095 with a .422 on-base plus slugging percentage against lefties this season, more than .300 points lower than his .755 mark against righties, and he has been losing at bats consistently against southpaws. This is not a one-year fluke, either, as Chisenhall batted just .230 with a .631 OPS against lefties in the minors a year ago when he hit .318 with an .880 OPS against righties.
Chisenhall has shown intermittent signs of life this season, but the breakout we hoped for has not come to pass. At this point, Fantasy owners in deeper leagues can only feel comfortable putting the 24-year-old in the lineup in a week when the Indians are set to face mostly right-handed pichers.

| Lonnie Chisenhall given day off to work on swing |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com (5/7/13) Lonnie Chisenhall is not in the Indians' starting lineup Tuesday against the Athletics.
Chisenhall has been replaced by Mark Reynolds, who will play third and bat fifth. Chisenhall will work on his swing with Indians hitting coach Ty Van Burkleo while he's out of the team's lineup. He's hitting just .231/.268/.397 in 78 at-bats this year.

| Lonnie Chisenhall hits third home run |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com (5/1/13) Indians third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall hit his third home run of the season Tuesday against the Phillies.
Chisenhall has started slow to begin the season, hitting .222/.253/.403 in 72 at-bats. Chisenhall was able to take advantage of a struggling Roy Halladay, hitting a two-run home run in the fourth inning. The Indians tagged Halladay for three home runs. Chisenhall will face Cliff Lee Wednesday.

| Lonnie Chisenhall is projected as the starting third baseman for Cleveland in 2013, after hitting .268 with five home runs and six doubles for the team in 2012 -- a season cut short by almost two months in the minors at the beginning of the season and a fractured forearm in late June. Before the injury, Chisenhall was delivering on some of his potential, hitting .278 with three home runs and two steals in 19 starts (he faded at the end after his return). A former top prospect (he was ranked 25th overall by Baseball America before the 2011 season), Chisenhall had little else to prove in the minors, having twice hit 17 or more home runs and carrying a .275 average in over 1,500 at-bats. The job seems to be Chisenhall's to lose, but if he struggles early, there's always a chance -- albeit a minor one -- that new acquisitions Mike Aviles or Mark Reynolds nudge their way into some third base starts. Still, Chisenhall has been solid in his limited MLB time and could emerge as a sleeper bench pick in deeper (16-team) mixed leagues. He has value in AL-only formats as a late-round pick to fill a corner infield spot. (Updated 1/4/13) |
