Fantasy Impact:
The 33-year-old will join the ever increasing list of outfielders vying for a job in Cleveland. Will Venable went 20/20 as recently as 2013 but slumped down to a 87 wRC+ player last year, with six HR and 16 SB in 390 PA split between the Rangers and the Padres. The Indians have an obvious need in the outfield, especially with the uncertain status of Michael Brantley. If Venable impresses during Spring Training he could be a sneaky source of steals.
