  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Batting leadoff Sunday

    Brennan will start in left field and bat leadoff in Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Though he'll fill in atop the batting order for a resting Steven Kwan on Sunday, Brennan's time as a strong-side platoon player for the Guardians could be over. He had been on the bench for four of the Guardians' previous six matchups with right-handed pitching, with rookie Kyle Manzardo and Lane Thomas seemingly have overtaken Brennan as the team's preferred options at designated hitter and in right field, respectively.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Sitting in favor of Manzardo

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

    Kyle Manzardo will replace Brennan in the lineup for a second straight game, with manager Stephen Vogt opting to reward the rookie with another start after he slugged two solo home runs and drew a walk in his return from Triple-A Columbus in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Pirates. Though Brennan has a longer track record at the big-league level, Manzardo is regarded as one of the organization's top prospects and unquestionably brings more upside to the table. If Manzardo can turn in another productive day at the plate Monday, he would build a stronger case for supplanting Brennan as the Guardians' primary designated hitter versus right-handed pitching.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Taking seat Sunday

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

    The lefty-hitting Brennan typically sits against left-handed pitching, but he'll head to the bench Sunday against righty Mitch Keller. He'll cede his spot in the lineup to September call-up Kyle Manzardo from Triple-A Columbus, who will serve as the Guardians' designated hitter.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench versus southpaw

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

    Brennan has a .567 OPS over his past 10 games and will sit Friday as lefty Bailey Falter takes the mound for Pittsburgh. David Fry will bat cleanup as the designated hitter in the series opener.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Sitting out versus left-hander

    Brennan is not in the lineup for the first game of Monday's doubleheader versus the Royals.

    The Royals are starting lefty Cole Ragans in the afternoon contest, so the left-handed-hitting Brennan will begin the game on the bench. He is a good bet to be in the lineup for the nightcap against right-hander Alec Marsh.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Out against southpaw

    Brennan is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Rangers.

    Brennan started the previous three games and went 3-for-11 with a walk, two doubles, an RBI and two runs. He'll sit Sunday against Texas lefty Cody Bradford, which opens up the DH spot for David Fry.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Knocks three hits in loss

    Brennan went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Brewers.

    Brennan remains hot at the plate, going 11-for-25 (.440) over seven games since he was recalled from Triple-A Columbus. The outfielder has just two extra-base hits in that span, but that plays just fine for slap-happy Cleveland. The outfielder is up to a .254/.305/.397 slash line with eight home runs, 26 RBI, 31 runs scored and three stolen bases over 272 plate appearances this season.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Out of lineup vs. lefty

    Brennan is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

    Since returning from Triple-A Columbus on Friday, Brennan seems to have taken back a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching, but the Guardians will continue to shield the lefty-hitting outfielder from southpaws. Jhonkensy Noel will get the nod in right field in place of Brennan on Monday while the Cubs send lefty Shota Imanaga to the bump.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Getting breather Saturday

    Brennan isn't in the Guardians' lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins.

    Brennan went 4-for-7 and scored a run over the course of Friday's doubleheader. He'll get a breather Saturday, opening up right field for Jhonkensy Noel to start while batting seventh.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Four hits across doubleheader

    Brennan went 4-for-7 with one run scored over both games of Friday's doubleheader versus the Twins.

    Brennan's last stint in the majors saw him go 0-for-20 over nine contests from July 11-27. This time around has already been more productive. The 26-year-old was called up to replace Angel Martinez on the Guardians' roster, and there's a path to a strong-side platoon role for Brennan in right field, a position he'll likely share with Jhonkensy Noel while Lane Thomas moves over to center. Brennan is slashing .244/.299/.385 with eight home runs, three stolen bases, 24 RBI and 29 runs scored over 79 big-league games this year.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Guardians recalled Brennan from Triple-A Columbus on Friday.

    He's taking the roster spot vacated by Angel Martinez, who has been optioned back to Columbus. Brennan posted a .992 OPS in nine games with Columbus after being sent down late last month. He could see some action in right field versus righties if the Guardians elect to use Lane Thomas in center more often.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Optioned to make room for Thomas

    The Guardians optioned Brennan to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

    Brennan was sent to the minors as the corresponding transaction for the addition of trade-deadline pickup Lane Thomas to the roster. He easily leads the Guardians with 50 starts in right field this season, but Brennan's playing time is now slated to go to Thomas. The 26-year-old Brennan is slashing just .233/.291/.379 over 247 plate appearances this season.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: Sitting Monday

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

    With lefty Bryan Sammons projected to work in bulk relief behind the Tigers' opening pitcher, Beau Brieske, the lefty-hitting Brennan will hit the bench in the series opener. Jhonkensy Noel will draw a start in right field at Brennan's expense.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench for Cleveland

    Brennan is absent from the lineup for Monday's game versus the Tigers.

    The left-handed Brennan rarely starts against southpaws, so it comes as little surprise that he'll take a seat against All-Star Tarik Skubal. Jhonkensy Noel is handling right field for Cleveland.

  • Guardians' Will Brennan: On bench Saturday

    Brennan is not in the starting lineup Saturday against San Diego.
