EDGE Analysis

As anticipated, Brantley's roster spot will be opened up while he attends to the birth of his child. Right-hander Adam Plutko was recalled to fill the void on the roster, although Daniel Robertson seems like the main beneficiary for playing time in the next few days. Look for Brantley to be back in the next few days.
