Fantasy Impact:
Michael Brantley has not looked his dominant self recently. Over his last eight games, he has gone 7-for-32 (.219 AVG) with no home runs and three RBI. In his first 19 games in May, he went 23-for-72 (.319 AVG) with four home runs and 19 RBI. There is no suggestion of an imminent DL stint.
