Indians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti said Tuesday that Brantley (shoulder) is without a timetable for a return, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. "There's nothing new," Antonetti said. "We've tried to be transparent with it. We don't have a definitive timetable. We need to work off Michael and how he responds to activities. We'll continue to do that."

Antonetti echoed manager Terry Francona's sentiment from Monday; basically that Brantley has had no setbacks in his recovery, and the team isn't sure when he'll be back. A Yahoo Sports report from Monday suggested there is "serious concern" within the organization that Brantley could miss significant time. Antonetti said it's not the team's expectation that Brantley will miss a big part of the season. "But we don't have crystal ball," he added.
