Christian Yelich News
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich recorded his third career cycle in the team's 14-11 loss to the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday. He went 4-for-5 with a total of three RBI and two runs in the game. The 30-year-old had gone hitless over his previous three games so it was nice to see him break out of his mini-slump in a big way. Over 31 games on the year, Yelich is slashing .259/.356/.482 with five home runs, three stolen bases, 20 RBI and 22 runs.
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in a 9-1 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Saturday. He took Locke St. John deep in the eighth inning for his third long ball of the season. After slumping to start the year, Yelich is beginning to turn things around. The 30-year-old is slashing .462/.533/.1.456 with two home runs and four RBI over his last five games. Overall, Yelich is slashing .230/.322/.405 with three home runs, 12 RBI, 12 runs scored, and two stolen bases across 87 plate appearances in 2022.
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich made his first home run of the season count in Monday's 6-1 win over the Pirates, going 2-for-4 with a double, a grand slam, a walk, and a strikeout. Yelich mashed a fourth-inning Zach Thompson changeup into the right-field seats to put the Brewers up 6-1. The 30-year-old is looking to rebound after posting subpar 2020 and 2021 seasons. He is slashing .242/.395/.455 with six RBI through his first 43 plate appearances of this season. Those aren't quite the number fantasy managers are hoping for, but, hopefully, Yelich can continue to get things going in the remainder of this favorable Pirates series.

Milwaukee Brewers superstar Christian Yelich was one of the biggest disappointments of the 2020 fantasy baseball season, slashing just .205/.356/.430 with 12 HR and four steals over 247 PAs after two MVP-caliber campaigns. Part of the problem was likely bad luck, as his average exit velocity was a little bit better than 2019 on both airborne batted balls (97.1 mph vs. 96.7) and grounders (91.5 vs. 90.9). Furthermore, his .250 xBA and .476 xSLG were both better than his actual numbers. Unfortunately, there are also some troubling signs in his profile. Yelich's Swing% fell from 45.2 in 2019 to 34.6% last season, leading to passivity at the plate that sent his K% soaring to 30.8% from 20.3% in 2019. His FB% also slipped back under 30 after a 35.9% mark in his huge 2019, likely playing a role in his rate of Brls/BBE falling from 15.8% in 2019 to 12.1%. His Statcast Sprint Speed also fell to 28.1 ft./sec from 28.7, suggesting that he may not run as often in the future. Yelich is likely to be better in 2021 than he was in 2020, but his ADP of 11.69 may not adequately reflect the risk that his batting average and stolen bases fail to completely rebound.
