Indians premier outfielder Michael Brantley (shoulder) will miss the remainder of the regular season after receiving a cortisone shot in his shoulder Wednesday, per Jordan Bastian of MLB.com.
Brantley returned to the lineup Sunday and Monday, but will now miss the rest of the year with his team technically alive in the playoff chase.
He should be fine for the start of spring training unless something unforeseen prevents it. He finishes the year with a fine .310/.380/.480 slash line, but lower power numbers than he achieved in 2014.
