Michael Brantley's Fantasy Scouting Report

DAILY FANTASY PROJECTIONS AND PLAY OR FADE ADVICE

He is projected for 11.2 FanDuel points and 8.6 points on DraftKings. Based on the player pool average points per dollar he is coming up -$270 short of $4K on FanDuel and -$166 short of $5.1K on DraftKings. Their should be much better options (see below). Barring a significant lineup change consider him a daily fantasy player to fade. Below are how he ranks based on projected fantasy points on both DFS platforms. Look for players with more FPs at lower salaries.

These projections power SportsLine's Computer Picks and Fantasy Data. But for contest winning DFS optimal lineups by top experts like Mike McClure visit SportsLine's new Daily Fantasy Hub.

REST OF SEASON OUTLOOK AND POSITION RANK

Expect Michael Brantley to be a reliable fantasy starter the rest of the season. His 93.39 projected fantasy points puts him at #17 behind Eddie Rosario and ahead of Bryan Reynolds. He has averaged 3.41 fantasy points in his past 264 games. Our projected per game average is virtually the same. He is projected to average 3.34 fantasy points. His rank based on avg proj (#14) is better than his rank based on total fantasy points. He is owned in 100% of fantasy leagues so everyone expects him to be an elite outfielder. He is not projected for elite value. Michael Brantley is expected to come up short of this season-to-date's #8 fantasy position rank.

WEEK 22 AND 23 FANTASY OUTLOOK

Michael Brantley is projected for 3.35 fantasy points in one game the rest of the week which is good enough to be the #14 ranked outfielder and a must start for most owners. His projected fantasy production is the same as his rest of season per game projection. He is ranked above Mookie Betts but behind Thomas Pham the rest of the week. Week 23 will not be as good based on projected rank (#24). He is projected for 17.42 fantasy points.
