Christian Yelich Ramping Up Activity, Estimated Return Remains Mid-to-Late May
Milwaukee Brewers designated hitter/outfielder Christian Yelich (groin) is "ramping up hitting and running," and his expected return remains mid-to-late May, per Brewers beat writer Sophia Minnaert. The 34-year-old Yelich has been on the injured list since mid-April due to a strained adductor. Across 56 plate appearances before getting injured, Yelich hit .314/.375/.451 with one home run, 10 RBI, 10 runs scored, and three stolen bases. Injuries are a persistent concern for Yelich, who managed to play 150 games in 2025 but appeared in just 73 contests in 2024. Still, when healthy, the veteran slugger remains a must-start fantasy bat with the potential to contribute in all five categories. With Yelich sidelined, infielder Tyler Black and catcher/first baseman Gary Sanchez could continue to see the majority of DH at-bats for Milwaukee.
