Cleveland's Michael Brantley out of the lineup Thursday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Michael Brantley is not in the lineup for Thursday's home game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

What It Means:

It's just a routine day off for Brantley, and he'll be replaced in left field by Daniel Robertson, who will bat second against Dodgers' lefty Rich Hill.

Brantley has only managed a .302 wOBA against left-handed pitching this season, and his absence from the lineup doesn't have much of an impact on the Indians' offensive outlook. They have a 4.48 implied total in this one.
