Eligibility
Astros DH Michael Brantley went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run off Boston starter Nathan Eovaldi in the second inning.
Fantasy Impact
Brantley was one of five Astros hitters to take Eovaldi deep, as Houston's lineup was on fire Tuesday. The power stroke is beginning to come around for the former All-Star. He has three doubles and a home run the last few games, and is up to .286 on the season. As long as he is hitting near the top of this lineup, he provides mid-round value in mixed leagues.
Astros outfielder Michael Brantley went 1-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI in the suspended game picked up from Wednesday. He was given the night game off.
Fantasy Impact
Brantley hit his fifth double of the season in the sixth inning, driving in a run. He came around to score on an Alex Bregman double. Brantley's days of being an elite fantasy player are likely behind him. But he still possesses plenty of value, hitting near the top of one of the best lineups in baseball.
Michael Brantley hit a game-tying RBI triple in the bottom of the 8th against Detroit Saturday. He finished 1-for-4 with a run scored and the RBI.
Fantasy Impact
The Astros designated hitter is off to a bit of a slow start this season. The power has not been there yet this season for the 14-year veteran. But as the months pass and Houston's lineup warms up, his counting stats should still be there.
Michael Brantley went 2-for-4 with two RBI's in Houston's 7-2 win over Seattle Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
The Astros lefty picked up a two-run single in the second inning and later hit his fourth double of the season. Brantley had been struggling since missing a few games after being placed in the league's health and safety protocols. It's nice to see Brantley get some good swings in again.
Michael Brantley is out of the lineup again on Saturday for the Astros' game against the Blue Jays because of health and safety protocols.
Fantasy Impact
That's the only information Dusty Baker or the Astros will provide, which probably means Brantley was a close contact with someone with COVID-19 and they are waiting for test results. He was out stretching with his teammates before the game on Saturday, so for right now, don't expect Brantley to need to go to the COVID-19 IL. The Astros should provide further word when it is available.
