Yelich's Injury, Chourio's Absence Hurt Brewers

0:00It's April 15th. I'm Corey with The Story, and this is Milwaukee Brewers News today, your AI Power Team Report. Christian Yelich's hot star for the Brewers just slammed into a wall. The 34-year-old designated hitter landed on the 10-day injured list with a left-growing strain, and Doc spounced him fluid there. They're eyeing a mid-to-late May comeback after he left Sunday's game against the nationals following just two at-bats. So for this, Yelich was on fire through 15 games, hitting 314, 375, 451, with four extra base hits and 10, RBI's. His 826 OPS ranked third on the team among qualified guys. They called up Outfielder Greg Jones from Triple A to fill the spot. Yelich told reporters he felt weird running the base's last game and won't lock in a timeline, just plans to hit rehab hard and return fast. He's a blow from Milwaukee, especially since they're already missing young star Jackson Churrio, sidelined since before opening day with a fractured.

1:01Left-hand, Churrio's tests show improvement, but he's not back until early May. At 22, he smashed 21 homers in each of his first two big league seasons, so these Outfiel gaps hurt as the Brewers chase a fourth. Straight National League Central Crown. Milwaukee sits at 8 and 7, kicking off a three-game set against the defending American League champ Blue Jays tonight. They all need to plug those holes quick to stay in the hunt.
