Yesterday, Michael Brantley went 4-for-5, 2 runs, 4 RBIs with his 7th homer. One big day for a 2nd rounder is more than Ian Desmond owners can say. Yes, everything's better when compared to Ian Desmond. "Maw, this spinach is still half-frozen and spinach juice is dripping into my Salisbury steak." "In some countries, all children have is a 2nd round draft pick of Ian Desmond." "You're right, maw, you're right. I'm an ingrate!" That's a 34-year-old you after coming up from your mom's basement for dinner. One of my biggest regrets of this season was not labeling Brantley a Noid and telling you to avoid. I didn't rank him in the preseason crazy high so you would draft him, but I didn't outright say, "Look elsewhere, prematurely balding man." Meh, I guess my regrets could be worse. I mean, look at Lindsay Lohan's last ten years. If you own Brantley, I think at this point you have to hold tight and either go down with the ship or hope some of his cream rises -- mixed metaphor points! If you don't own Brantley like me, well, whew. I'm empathetic though. Kinda. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
