It's
great to see The Indians Michael Brantley pick up where he left off
before missing the last weeks of last seasons with a broken hand.
Branley looks as though he will nail down the lead-off batting spot for
the Tribe.Why not? Brantley went 2 for 3 yesterday and had a double too. Micheal Brantley could be the next Kenny Lofton for the Cleveland Indians. Just think how exciting that would be to have another Kenny Lofton on the Indians.
Brantlley missed 42 games last season, he still had some respectful number behind the plate. Brantley went to the plate 451 times, he finished the year with a .266 batting average having 24 doubles,4 triples and 7 home runs. There is no doubt Brantley swings a hot bat for Manny Acta, having Brantley in the lead off spot give the Tribe a weapon we haven't seen since the days of Lofton.
The Indians finished yesterday's game in Goodyear Arizona tied with the Cincinnati Reds at six. The Tribe will play the Reds again today and on Monday, lets hope Micheal Brantley continues to grove that sweet swing of his and he can stay healthy for the Indians throughout the 2012 season. If Michael Brantley can stay healthy I think we are going to see good things coming from Brantley this year. MLB could use a hot Michael Brantley this season. He brings excitement to the game....
