Jackson Chourio had a nice day on Wednesday in the team's 3-2 extra-inning win over the visiting Kansas City Royals at American Family Field. Chourio finished the team's second win of the year by going 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, two RBI, a run scored and a strikeout to raise his early-season average to .286 and his OPS to .786. The 21-year-old outfielder put the Brewers on the board early with a solo shot off lefty starter
Cole Ragans in the first inning, and he also tied the game up in the bottom of the 10th frame with his double. Fantasy managers might have been a little worried after Chourio went 0-for-5 with five strikeouts on Opening Day last Thursday against the New York Yankees, but he has quickly turned things around in the early going and now has four extra-base hits and four RBI in six games.

Jackson Chourio is expected to see time in center field during the 2025 campaign. Chourio received the starting nod in center field during Tuesday's spring training contest and will likely continue to see starts during the spring. If the budding star performs well during the rest of camp, fantasy managers should expect him to see occasional time in center field during the regular season. Last summer, Chourio made his MLB debut and split time in right and left field. However, when moving up through the minors, he did see time in center field. Across 148 contests, the 20-year-old posted a .275/.327/.464 line with 21 home runs and 22 stolen bases. Given his ability to contribute to all five standard categories, he is viewed as a high-upside No. 2 OF in all formats.

Jackson Chourio did his best to give his team a chance to win on Sunday, going 3-for-6 with a homer, a triple, and five RBI in an 11-10 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Chourio homered with two runners on in the fifth inning to put the Brewers back in the game and then tripled in the tenth inning to give the Crew a two-run lead. The 20-year-old (!) rookie has been a dynamo in the second half, and is now up to 21 homers, 20 steals, and an .808 OPS in his first year. He's gonna be a good one, and will be drafted very highly heading into next season.

Jackson Chourio hit a two-run homer on Tuesday to join the 20/20 club and lead his team to a 3-0 victory over the San Francisco Giants. His homer came in the eighth inning with the crew up 1-0, so the runs were key insurance markers. Chourio is just the third 20-year-old to reach the elusive club, with the other two being Vada Pinson and
Mike Trout. Good company to keep. The rookie phenom has been a solid five-category contributor in fantasy, and his stock should only continue to climb as he gets accustomed to the league.
