Jackson Chourio Fantasy Stats

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) progressed to taking swings for the first time in his rehab on Friday, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Chourio is recovering slowly from surgery to fix a broken left hamate bone in his hand, but Friday's step is definitely notable as he tries to work his way back for his 2026 season debut. It was a surprise out of nowhere, right before Opening Day late last month that the Brewers announced the 22-year-old Venezuelan was dealing with a broken hamate bone. Chourio is an absolute must-stash in all fantasy baseball formats, with his season debut hopefully coming in early May. He's one of the best young, power/speed threats in fantasy after slashing .272/.317/.463 with a .781 OPS, 42 home runs, 157 RBI, 43 stolen bases, and 168 runs scored in 279 games in his first two major-league seasons.

The Milwaukee Brewers announced on Tuesday that outfielder Jackson Chourio's (hand) estimated return date has been pushed back to early May, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Curt Hogg. Chourio has yet to play in 2026 due to a fractured left hand that he suffered back in early March. The 22-year-old has been healing, but he still has yet to resume hitting, so he has plenty of boxes to check before he's activated from the 10-day injured list for his season debut. Chourio will need a likely lengthy minor-league rehab assignment as the last step before the Brewers clear him to return to the big leagues. Fantasy managers need to hang onto Chourio everywhere despite his slow recovery from a hand fracture. When he returns, the hope is that he doesn't lose any of his power from the right side of the plate. The Venezuelan outfielder is one of the top young power/speed threats in fantasy baseball after clubbing 42 home runs and stealing 43 bases in 279 games in his first two years in the big leagues.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) said he got a good report from the doctor on Thursday and was reassured that his fractured hand is showing signs of healing, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. However, Chourio has still not been cleared to hit. It's a bit concerning that Chourio still hasn't been cleared to swing a bat after initially fracturing his hand back on March 4 while playing in an exhibition game against Team Venezuela. Before coming off the 10-day injured list to make his 2026 season debut, the talented young outfielder will likely need a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment, which means fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to return to the Brewers until sometime in May. In the meantime, Brandon Lockridge, Jake Bauers, and Blake Perkins will all continue to mix and match in Milwaukee's outfield with Chourio out. The 22-year-old Chourio has 42 homers, 157 RBI, and 43 steals in his first two MLB seasons, making him a potential difference-maker for fantasy squads when he's healthy.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) will have follow-up imaging done on his fractured left hand on Thursday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The Brewers are still estimating a mid- to late-April return for the young outfielder. The 22-year-old has yet to make his 2026 season debut after fracturing his hand back on March 4. When healthy, the Venezuelan outfielder has an incredibly high ceiling and floor for fantasy managers after hitting exactly 21 home runs in each of his first two seasons in the big leagues. Last year, in 131 games played, Chourio slashed .270/.308/.463 with a .770 OPS, 78 RBI, 88 runs scored, and 21 steals in 589 plate appearances. He has been a 20-20 player in each of his first two seasons in the league. There is still plenty to improve on for Chourio, especially his chase rate, but he has clear 30-30 potential in the coming year. Chourio should be stashed in an IL spot in all fantasy leagues while he recovers.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) has been running and throwing as part of his rehab program, and he has also been standing in and watching pitches on the Trajekt machine, manager Pat Murphy told Todd Rosiak of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Additionally, Murphy noted that Chourio will be re-evaluated on Friday, when he undergoes his next scan. The young outfielder has been sidelined since Opening Day, when he was scratched hours before first pitch and placed on the 10-day injured list. He's a key piece of the Brewers' short-term and long-term plans for success, and he's looking to build off an impressive 2025 campaign in which he slashed .270/.308/.463 with 21 home runs, 21 steals, and 111 wRC+. The Brewers have opted to play Brandon Lockridge in left field during Chourio's absence, allowing them to keep Christian Yelich in the designated hitter spot.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio (hand) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a fractured left hand, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. He is expected to miss two to four weeks. This is crushing news for the Brewers, just hours before their Opening Day contest against the Chicago White Sox. Chourio was terrific in his second MLB season last year, slashing .270/.308/.463 with 21 home runs, 21 walks, and 111 wRC+. He has put together a 20-20 campaign in each of his first two years at the major league level, but a delayed start to the 2026 season could threaten that streak. It's bad news for fantasy managers, too, as they'll have to quickly pivot and find a replacement for the 22-year-old, who ranked #9 among outfielders in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings and had an ADP of 21. Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that he expects Christian Yelich, who logged 130 games at designated hitter last year, to play the outfield in Chourio's absence.

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.
