Chourio's Swings: Brewers Offense Boost?

0:00On April 22nd, Brewer's manager Pat Murphy dropped some key injury news before Tuesday's matchup with the Tigers. Star Outfielder Jackson Churrio, sidelined by a hand injury, is set to take live swings on the field Wednesday. That's a big step, marking his first on-field hitting since landing on the injured list to start the season. Churrio has been a standout since his big league debut last year. The 22-year-old finished, third in National League Rookie of the Year voting, and 22nd in MVP Balloting. This season, he's kept producing, boasting a career, slash line of 272, over 308, over 463, across 200. 79 games, with 42 homers, and 43 steals. Injuries have hammered the brewers early on, but Churrio trending up could give their lineup a serious boost. Fans in the front office are hopeful, this means he's closing in on a return, easing some of the pressure on the outfield. The team will keep a close eye and share more as it develops.
