Jackson Chourio Placed on Injured List with Fractured Hand
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a fractured left hand, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. He is expected to miss two to four weeks. This is crushing news for the Brewers, just hours before their Opening Day contest against the Chicago White Sox. Chourio was terrific in his second MLB season last year, slashing .270/.308/.463 with 21 home runs, 21 walks, and 111 wRC+. He has put together a 20-20 campaign in each of his first two years at the major league level, but a delayed start to the 2026 season could threaten that streak. It's bad news for fantasy managers, too, as they'll have to quickly pivot and find a replacement for the 22-year-old, who ranked #9 among outfielders in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings and had an ADP of 21. Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that he expects Christian Yelich, who logged 130 games at designated hitter last year, to play the outfield in Chourio's absence.
