Brewers Expecting 'Bad News' on Christian Yelich
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that the organization is "most likely to get some bad news" regarding the injury status of designated hitter Christian Yelich (hamstring), according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Yelich is being evaluated after exiting Sunday's game early. While medical testing is presumably ongoing, the fact that Murphy publicly expressed pessimism about his diagnosis is concerning. The Brewers have already been dealt bad injury news left and right. Jackson Chourio (finger) opened the regular season on the 10-day injured list, Andrew Vaughn (hand) joined him shortly after, and now, it looks like Yelich could be next. The 34-year-old has been producing at a high level offensively, slashing .327/.389/.469 with one home run, 10 RBI, three steals, and 138 wRC+. Assuming that he does miss time, the Brewers will likely take a rotational committee approach to replacing him in the designated hitter slot.
