Christian Yelich Continues to Progress, Expected to Return in Mid- to Late-May
The plan is for Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (groin) to progress to live at-bats and baserunning by early next week, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. His estimated return remains in mid- to late-May. Yelich is recovering from a left-groin strain and was able to take on-field batting practice with the rest of the team on Monday before the series opener in St. Louis against the Cardinals. He's currently on the 10-day injured list, but the former MVP, three-time All-Star, and two-time batting champion should remain rostered in all fantasy baseball leagues while he heals. The 34-year-old veteran only had one home run in his first 51 at-bats of the 2026 season, but he was also hitting a cool .314 with 10 RBI, 10 runs scored, and three stolen bases. He should be back in a couple of weeks, which will be another boost to Milwaukee's offense after both outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand, foot) and first baseman Andrew Vaughn (hand) came off the IL on Monday.
