Fantasy Impact:

Braun underwent back surgery in October, and he's said to have responded well in his recovery so far. The team is taking a cautious approach, and the expectation remains that the slugger will be ready for Opening Day. Braun lost some of the protection around him in the lineup, but he continues to be considered among the top players (ECR of 40) considering his solid power/speed combination he showed in 2015.
