Fantasy Impact

He did have a solid audition in Atlanta at the end of last season as he batted .268 in 47 plate appearances with the Braves. If he makes the big league roster out of spring, he would fill a utility role in New York.

In parts of five seasons at the major league level, Brujan is a career .199 hitter over 645 plate appearances.
