  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Sitting out against lefty

    Brennan isn't in the Guardians' lineup Saturday against the Orioles.

    Fellow left-hander John Means will start on the bump Saturday for Baltimore, so Brennan will take a seat for the beginning of the game. His absence will allow Ramon Laureano to start in right field while batting fourth.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Notches steal Friday

    Brennan went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 9-8 win over the Orioles.

    Brennan has done little in the way of counting stats in September with two steals, six RBI and eight runs scored over 19 games. All four of his extra-base hits this month have been doubles, but he is batting .308 in that span. The outfielder is up to 13 thefts with a .266/.300/.359 slash line, five home runs, 41 RBI and 40 runs scored through 133 contests overall.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench versus lefty

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Brennan will sit against Halos lefty Kenny Rosenberg, which is his third time out of the lineup in Cleveland's past four games. Steven Kwan, Myles Straw and Kole Calhoun will start from left to right in the outfield Sunday.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Drives in two, logs steal

    Brennan went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

    Brennan's pair of hits knocked in Andres Gimenez for both of the Guardians' runs in the win. This was Brennan's third straight multi-hit effort and his fifth in his last seven games. The outfielder's small surge has helped stabilize his place in the lineup even with the solid hitting of Ramon Laureano. Brennan is at a .271/.301/.370 slash line with 12 steals, 38 RBI, 35 runs scored, five home runs and 22 doubles through 120 contests.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Three-hit effort in loss

    Brennan went 3-for-5 with a double, one RBI and one run scored in Monday's 20-6 loss to the Twins.

    Brennan has come to life at the plate over his last 11 games, going 14-for-34 (.412) in that span, albeit with just one extra-base hit. The outfielder's lost a grip on an everyday role with Ramon Laureano muscling his way into the lineup, though Myles Straw is most likely to be at risk of losing additional playing time going forward. Brennan is at a .266/.296/.363 slash line with five home runs, 11 stolen bases, 36 RBI, 34 runs scored and 21 doubles over 118 games.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Heads to bench Sunday

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

    Brennan went 6-for-17 with a walk, two RBI, a stolen base and a run scored while starting each of the past five games, but he'll take a seat for the series finale with the Guardians welcoming Josh Naylor (oblique) back from the injured list Sunday and deploying him at designated hitter. With Ramon Laureano having seemingly moved into a full-time role in the outfield, the addition of Naylor could result in one of Brennan or Myles Straw losing out on playing time alongside Laureano and Steven Kwan. Brennan appears to have the edge over Straw for now, with the latter having sat out two of the Guardians' last five matchups with right-handed starting pitchers.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Picks up 11th steal

    Brennan went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Twins.

    Brennan was bothered by a right knee strain over the weekend, but his activity on the basepaths suggests that's no longer a concern. The outfielder is hitting just .224 (13-for-58) in August with three doubles, four steals and no home runs. For the season, he's at a modest .256/.288/.355 slash line with five homers, 11 steals, 35 RBI and 32 runs scored through 113 contests.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Rejoins starting nine

    Brennan (knee) will serve as Cleveland's designated hitter and No. 6 hitter in Monday's game against the Twins.

    A strained right knee prevented Brennan from starting the past three days, but after getting three at-bats off the bench in Sunday's 10-7 win over the Blue Jays, he will rejoin the starting nine for the series opener in Minnesota. Ramon Laureano will stick in the lineup in right field while Brennan is eased back into the mix in a non-defensive role.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Out again Sunday

    Brennan (knee) remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

    He'll be on the bench for a third straight game while he battles a right knee strain, though the lefty-hitting Brennan may not have started Sunday even if 100 percent healthy due to the Blue Jays bringing southpaw Yusei Kikuchi to the hill. Ramon Laureano will step in for Brennan as Cleveland's starting right fielder.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Remains sidelined

    Brennan (knee) remains on the bench for Saturday's game against Toronto.

    Brennan was scratched from the lineup Friday with a strained knee, an injury he suffered when he crashed into the outfield wall Thursday against the Dodgers. Ramon Laureano will handle right field Saturday.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Scratched with knee strain

    Brennan was scratched from the lineup Friday at Toronto due to a strained right knee, Paul Hoynes of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Brennan suffered the injury when he ran into the outfield wall Thursday against the Dodgers. He has not yet been placed on the 10-day injured list, so it may be a relatively minor knee strain. Consider him day-to-day for now.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Notches steal Thursday

    Brennan went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's 9-3 loss to the Dodgers.

    Brennan has picked up his pace on the basepaths, swiping three bags over his last six games while going 6-for-20 (.300) in that span. The outfielder appears to have settled into a strong-side platoon role in right field, sharing the position with the righty-hitting duo of Ramon Laureano and Oscar Gonzalez. Brennan is slashing .257/.289/.359 with five home runs, 10 steals, 33 RBI, 32 runs scored and 20 doubles over 110 contests this season.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench against southpaw

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

    Brennan will join fellow lefty hitters Andres Gimenez, Kole Calhoun and Bo Naylor on the bench Wednesday while the Dodgers bring southpaw Clayton Kershaw to the hill. Ramon Laureano will draw the start in right field in Brennan's stead.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Three hits in win

    Brennan went 3-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Dodgers.

    The 25-year-old outfielder has four multi-hit performances in his last 10 starts, but they account for nine of his 10 hits in August as he sports a poor .222/.239/.289 slash line on the month. He also hasn't homered since the end of June. Brennan continues to hold down the strong side of a platoon in right field, with Ramon Laureano and Oscar Gonzalez spotting in against lefties.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench against southpaw

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

    Brennan will sit for the third time in five games, but all three of those absences have come with the opposition bringing left-handed pitchers to the hill. The lefty-hitting Brennan still appears to be locked into the strong side of a platoon in right field with either Ramon Laureano or Oscar Gonzalez.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Sitting out versus lefty

    Brennan is absent from the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Tigers.

    It's left-hander Tarik Skubal on the mound for Detroit in the first game, so Brennan will begin this one on the bench while Ramon Laureano handles right field. Brennan should be back in the lineup for the evening game when the Tigers are slated to start righty Matt Manning.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench versus lefty

    Brennan is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Reds.

    Ramon Laureano will play right field and bat third with left-hander Andrew Abbott set to take the mound for Cincinnati. Brennan is slashing just .152/.177/.212 in 34 plate appearances since the calendar flipped to August and he carries a brutal .391 OPS versus lefties this year.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Nabs steal in win

    Brennan went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Reds.

    Brennan got aboard on fielder's choices twice in the game, turning one into a steal. The outfielder has struggled a bit in August, going 5-for-33 (.152) over nine games this month while losing playing time after gaining a starting role in right field. Ramon Laureano is his main competitor for at-bats, though Oscar Gonzalez and Kole Calhoun are also in the corner outfield mix. Brennan is down to a .251/.285/.355 slash line with five home runs, eight steals, 31 RBI and 29 runs scored over 105 contests this season.
