2 years agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (back) is out of the starting lineup yet again on Tuesday with the team taking on the St. Louis Cardinals. Manager Craig Counsell hasn't ruled out the team placing Yelich on the injured list at this point. He's only played in one of the team's last 11 games due to a lingering back issue, and the Brewers surely would like to get him healthy for the postseason in October. Tyrone Taylor is in left field and batting sixth, Blake Perkins is in center and hitting ninth, and Sal Frelick is in right and in the seven-hole on Tuesday against Cardinals left-hander Drew Rom. Fantasy managers battling for a title may have to confront the reality that they might not have Yelich in their lineups for the rest of the season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

12 hours agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich had an overall productive game offensively in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Royals. Yelich went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two RBI, and a walk. He also stole his second base of the season. The 33-year-old clubbed an eighth-inning John Schreiber cutter deep over the right-center wall for his first long ball of the season. It was an encouraging game for Yelich, who is slashing just .125/.300/.313 in his first 20 plate appearances of the season. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about Yelich's performance this early in the season, as health is his key issue. He has been a solid fantasy contributor when on the field throughout his career. Hopefully, this game can help get him going.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller

4 weeks agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (back) is scheduled to play around four innings in left field on Wednesday in the Cactus League game against the Chicago White Sox, according to MLB.com's Adam McCalvy. It's the first time that Yelich will test his surgically-repaired back in the outfield this spring. There's always plenty of inherent risk taking a player in fantasy drafts coming off serious back surgery -- he had surgery last August to fix a herniated disc in his lower back -- but at least with Yelich, we know that he has MVP upside when he's right. If his back surgery fixes his chronic back problems, fantasy managers could have a steal on their hands. The former 23rd overall pick of the Miami Marlins in 2010 is a three-time All-Star and former MVP, and he was hitting .315 (85-for-270) with 11 homers, 42 RBI and 21 steals in only 73 games last year before he was shut down.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

1 month agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (back) will make his spring debut on Saturday afternoon against the Texas Rangers. Yelich underwent a microdiscectomy procedure in August to address a herniated disc in his lower back. The 33-year-old was shut down after this operation in August. However, seeing him return early in spring training suggests he should have a great opportunity to be a full-go in time for Opening Day. Before the injury last season, Yelich was on pace to enjoy a strong campaign as he held a .315/.406/.504 slash line with 12 doubles, 11 home runs, and 21 stolen bases. He generated an elite .373 xwOBA with a strong 12.7 percent walk rate. When healthy, fantasy managers should expect Yelich to have an everyday role in left field and bat near the top of the Milwaukee lineup.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

1 month agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (back) took batting practice on the field at camp on Monday morning, and manager Pat Murphy thinks Yelich will make his Cactus League debut once the calendar flips to March. The Brewers are understandably taking it slow with Yelich early in spring training after he had a microdiscectomy to fix a herniated disc in his lower back last August, but he's coming along nicely and should be ready for Opening Day in late March, barring a setback. The 33-year-old veteran left-handed hitter has had ongoing back issues in recent seasons, but hopefully his procedure last year will correct everything moving forward. There's obvious risk from a fantasy perspective from such a surgery, but it helps to know that the former MVP was hitting .315 with 11 homers, 42 RBI and 21 steals in 73 games before he was shut down last year. Yelich is RotoBaller's No. 27 outfielder in 2025.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
