Grandal went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's win over the Brewers.

The catcher's ninth-inning home run extended the game and allowed the Dodgers to win in extras. It was just Grandal's sixth long ball of the season, putting him on pace to finish closer to the mid-teen power we were used to prior to his 27-homer outburst last season. The decreased power has been offset by a .282 batting average, but that is being inflated by a career-high .351 BABIP. Assuming his average dips back down to its usual level and his power isn't what was expected, Grandal will still hold standard-league value based on the general lack of productive options at the catcher position.
