Christian Yelich Hitless In Tuesday's Loss
2 years agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 0-for-2 with two walks in the Brewers' 7-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday night. Yelich missed multiple games due to back tightness last week, but he returned over the weekend. His power is up this season, as he's on pace to reach 20 home runs for the first time since 2019 if he can stay healthy. Staying healthy has been a challenge for Yelich since that 2019 season, but he played in 154 games last year. His average hasn't seen noticeable improvement, however, as he's hitting .251 entering play Wednesday after hitting .252 last year and .248 in 2021. Yelich continues to be a valuable source of stolen bases with 11 on the year. The power and speed carry his value in rotisserie formats, so long as he can stay on the field.
