Jackson Chourio Fantasy Stats

Team Venezuela manager Omar Lopez said that Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) is "ready" and should be back in the lineup for the World Baseball Classic contest against Nicaragua on Monday, according to Kevin Barral of FishOnFirst.com. A left-hand injury has caused Chourio to miss Venezuela's first two games of the WBC, but it's not a serious injury, and he'll be back in action next week after injuring his hand in an exhibition game last Wednesday when he was hit by a pitch. The 21-year-old will be ready for Opening Day at the end of this month and will look to continue improving as one of the league's best young outfielders after slashing .272/.317/.463 with a .781 OPS, 52 home runs, 157 RBI, 168 runs scored, and 43 stolen bases in 1,162 plate appearances over his first 279 regular-season games. Chourio is ranked as RotoBaller's No. 8 overall fantasy outfielder going into the 2026 season.

Updating a previous report, Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) suffered a left-hand contusion from a hit-by-pitch on Wednesday in a World Baseball Classic exhibition game, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Chourio is not in the lineup for Team Venezuela's WBC game on Friday against the Netherlands, but he could play on Saturday against Israel. "He's fine," manager Pat Murphy said. X-rays on the 21-year-old came back negative, so he shouldn't be in any danger of not being ready on Opening Day in late March. Chourio should be considered a top-10 fantasy baseball outfielder going into his third MLB season. He's been pretty consistent in his first two big-league campaigns, hitting .272/.317/.463 with a .781 OPS, 42 home runs, 157 RBI, 168 runs scored, and 43 stolen bases in 279 regular-season games for the Brew Crew. Chourio's batted-ball metrics are a bit concerning, but heading into his age-22 season, he is just getting started.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (wrist) won't play in Team Venezuela's game against Team Netherlands on Friday in the World Baseball Classic. Chourio is dealing with a wrist contusion after getting hit by a pitch on Wednesday. He underwent further testing that revealed a soft-tissue contusion, so there is no structural damage. It sounds like Chourio has avoided any significant injuries, which is a huge relief. He will be available to play defense and run during Friday's game. Team Venezuela is just going to play it safe and not have Chourio hit for at least one game and see how he's feeling. Barring any setbacks, Chourio should be physically fine in a few days.

Across 589 plate appearances in 2025, Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio posted a .270/.308/.463 slash line with 21 home runs, 78 RBI, 88 runs scored, and 21 stolen bases. The 21-year-old's overall output was solid, but he didn't quite deliver on the full-scale breakout that some were hoping for heading into the year. Chourio missed time during the year due to a hamstring injury, which held down his counting stats and may have impacted his performance. Heading into 2026, Chourio should be fully recovered and locked into an everyday spot at or near the top of a Brewers lineup that finished second in the National League in runs scored (806) in 2025. While Chourio's top-level production in 2025 looks similar to the numbers he posted in 2024, he improved his barrel rate from 7.8% to 9.7% while cutting his strikeout rate from 21.1% to 20.5%. With improved health in 2026, Chourio could provide first-round caliber five-category fantasy production.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup for Game 4 of the National League Championship Series on Friday against the Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Shohei Ohtani, starting in left field and batting second. Chourio's troublesome hamstring tightened up on him in the middle of an at-bat in the Game 3 loss on Thursday, and he was pulled early. He initially injured his hamstring in Game 1 of the series. The 21-year-old is back a day later, though, and will be trying to help the Brew Crew avoid a four-game sweep in the best-of-seven series. Milwaukee will surely need Chourio to step up if they are going to be only the second team in the history of MLB to come back from a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven series. In the first three games of the series, Chourio has just one hit in 11 at-bats, although it was a home run.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hamstring) aggravated a balky right hamstring mid at-bat in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers and was pulled in the seventh inning, according to Jeff Passon of ESPN. Chourio injured his hamstring in Game 1 of the series. He was replaced by Blake Perkins after going 0-for-4 at the plate. With Milwaukee now down three games to none in the best-of-seven series and with their 21-year-old leadoff hitter injured again, things aren't looking good. According to manager Pat Murphy, Chourio was having "continual cramps" in his hamstring and was receiving IV treatment. It remains to be seen if Chourio will be available for Game 4 of the series in L.A. on Friday as the Brewers look to avoid elimination. Going into Thursday's game, Chourio had gone 8-for-25 (.320) with two homers, two doubles, eight RBI, and three runs scored in seven postseason games this October.

Chourio appears to be back at full strength after suffering a hamstring injury during Game 1 of the NLDS. Despite the injury, Chourio was able to go 7-for-19 at the plate with one home run and six RBI during the five-game series versus the Chicago Cubs. Sometimes, Christian Yelich takes over in the leadoff spot, but the Brewers will opt to go with Chourio against left-hander Blake Snell. The 21-year-old figures to be an important factor for this series.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hamstring) is starting in left field and is hitting second for Game 3 of the National League Division Series on Wednesday at Wrigley Field against the division-rival Chicago Cubs and right-hander Jameson Taillon. Chourio was pulled from the Game 1 win on Saturday with right-hamstring tightness, and he left the contest early again in the Game 2 win in Milwaukee on Monday. It has helped that the 21-year-old has had a day off between each game of the series, which will allow him to return for Game 3 as he looks to continue swinging a hot bat against Chicago. Through the first two games, Chourio has gone 5-for-7 with a home run and six RBI. Chourio has swung the bat well in his career against Taillon, too, going 7-for-13 against him with a home run and four RBI. Another big game could be coming.

The Milwaukee Brewers removed outfielder Jackson Chourio (hamstring) from the Game 2 win in the National League Division Series on Monday due to right-hamstring tightness, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

The 21-year-old tweaked his hamstring back in Game 1 on Saturday, but he was able to play on Monday, and he's gone 5-for-7 in two games in the NLDS with a home run and six RBI. Chourio is a big reason why the Brewers had the best regular-season record in baseball this year, so losing him going forward in the playoffs would be a big blow for Milwaukee. Isaac Collins would likely make a start in the outfield on Wednesday if Chourio is unavailable.

He was three-for-three with three RBI and a run scored in Game 1 before leaving the game.
