Christian Yelich's Grand Slam Fuels Brewers' Blowout Victory

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich starred in Tuesday's 11-3 blowout win over the San Francisco Giants. Yelich went 2-for-5 with a 407-foot grand slam in the sixth inning that broke the game open, giving the Brewers a 9-1 lead. He also doubled in the third, finishing the night with seven total bases and two runs scored. Yelich's hard-hit percentage (52.8%) and average exit velocity (91.9 mph) rank above the 80th percentile this season, suggesting potential for a jump in his numbers as April nears its end. Overall, the 33-year-old is slashing .222/.337/.444 with five home runs, 19 RBI, and five stolen bases across 95 plate appearances in 2025. Yelich and the Brewers will look to stay hot against Logan Webb on Wednesday.

Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Eight In Latest Triple-A Start

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski enjoyed his best start of the season on Tuesday evening against Triple-A Durham. In this outing, the No. 4-ranked prospect in Milwaukee tossed six shutout innings. He allowed just one hit and one free pass. He tallied a season-best eight punchouts. Through Misiorowski's first 24 2/3 innings of the Triple-A campaign, he has held a strong 2.19 ERA with a 0.97 WHIP. He struggled to command his pitches in his first three starts but has allowed just three walks over his last 11 frames. Last summer, Misiorowski spent most of his time with Double-A before earning a brief taste of Triple-A. Given his progression at Triple-A, Misiorowski could be worth closely monitoring as he could contend for his MLB debut in the first half of the season.

Jeferson Quero To Resume Baseball Activities

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring, shoulder) has resumed baseball activities as he continues his return from multiple injuries. The Venezuelan backstop made one plate appearance last season before going down with a shoulder injury that required surgery, then suffered a hamstring injury in spring training this year. Whenever the 22-year-old gets back in the lineup, it is expected to be with Triple-A Nashville, but the Brewers' top prospect (MLB No. 44) should make his major-league debut at some point later this year. However, after missing so much time and with William Contreras locked in at catcher, there is no need to rush it. With a 16-homer campaign under his belt in just 90 games in 2023, there is some pop in his bat, so fantasy managers needing catcher help will want to monitor his progression, although he is known more for his work behind the plate than his offense.

Nestor Cortes Moved To 60-Day Injured List

The Milwaukee Brewers moved left-hander Nestor Cortes (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday to make room on the 40-man roster for right-handed reliever Craig Yoho. Cortes is dealing with a left-elbow flexor strain and received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his arm earlier this month. With the move to the 60-day IL, it means that the 30-year-old veteran southpaw won't be eligible to return to Milwaukee's starting rotation until June. He has yet to be cleared to resume throwing a baseball. In addition to his serious elbow injury, the Cuban hurler got off to a rough start in his time with the Brew Crew in two starts before going on the shelf, allowing eight earned runs on seven hits (five homers) while walking seven and striking out eight in eight innings. Cortes is not a must-hold in mixed fantasy leagues.

Daz Cameron Swinging A Hot Bat With Nashville

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Daz Cameron has enjoyed an impressive start to his tenure in the Brewers system. The Brewers acquired Cameron from Baltimore in exchange for cash considerations earlier in April. Cameron was sent to Triple-A Nashville shortly after the transaction. Through his first seven games with his new club, the 28-year-old has posted an impressive .419/.472/.935 slash line with four doubles and four round-trippers. He has tallied at least two hits in all but two of these games. He enjoyed success at the Triple-A last summer as he held a solid .307/.424/.577 line across 41 games with the Norfolk Tides. He is a name to monitor as the Brewers may look to promote him to the major leagues if he continues to show upside at the top level of the minor leagues.

Craig Yoho Allows One Run In MLB Debut

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Craig Yoho allowed one run during his MLB debut on Monday evening. Yoho entered the game in the eighth inning. He proceeded to strike out the first batter he saw, Heliot Ramos. However, he then allowed a walk to LaMonte Wade Jr. and a single to Wilmer Flores. Wade would eventually score on a double play later in the frame. This is a strong debut for Yoho, who just joined the MLB roster prior to Monday's contest against the Giants. Earlier in the summer, Yoho tossed nine 2/3 shutout innings with Triple-A. During this stint, he allowed five hits, three walks, and struck out nine hitters. Last summer, he held a 1.26 ERA across 14 1/3 innings with an 18:9 K:BB at Triple-A. He is worth a look in holds leagues as he appears to have a high-leverage role in the Milwaukee bullpen

Jackson Chourio Singles In Loss To Giants

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio went 1-for-4 with a single in a 5-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Monday. Chourio is now hitting .260 with five homers, 17 runs, 19 RBI, and two steals across 100 at-bats. He has been in a bit of a slump at the plate of late, hitting just .179 with no homers and six strikeouts over his past seven games. That being said, Chourio posted a 20/20 season as a 20-year-old rookie in 2024 and should continue to show improvement in his second MLB season. Fantasy managers will want to stay patient with him as he works through his current slump.

Caleb Durbin Homers In Loss Monday

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Caleb Durbin turned in a productive game in a 5-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Monday. Durbin went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer to provide the only offense for the Brewers in the loss. The rookie infielder now has his first MLB homer under his belt as he launched a 375-foot blast off Giants starter Robbie Ray in the second inning. Durbin was just recalled from Triple-A last week and has posted a .200 average, three runs, three RBI, and a steal across 15 at-bats. He has plenty of speed and is worth monitoring in fantasy in case he's able to reach base consistently as Milwaukee's regular third baseman.

Tobias Myers To Start On Thursday Against Giants

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Tobias Myers (oblique) is set to come off the 15-day injured list to start against the San Francisco Giants on Thursday at Oracle Park. It will be Myers' season debut after making three minor-league rehab starts for Triple-A Nashville. The 26-year-old looked good during his three starts in the minors, allowing three earned runs on 10 hits while walking four and striking out eight in 13 1/3 innings pitched. Myers tossed five scoreless innings with five strikeouts in his final rehab assignment and should be ready to handle close to a full workload when he takes the mound in a pitcher-friendly ballpark in San Fran this week. Due to his below-average strikeout rate, expecting Myers to be better than his 3.00 ERA from last year might be foolish, but he'll have value in deep-mixed and NL-only leagues as a permanent member of Milwaukee's starting rotation.

Logan Henderson Heading Back To Triple-A

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Logan Henderson is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Nashville to make room for right-handed reliever Craig Yoho on the active major-league roster this week. The Brewers' starting rotation didn't have imminent room for Henderson despite his excellent debut on Sunday now that right-hander Tobias Myers (oblique) is returning from the injured list on Thursday. The 23-year-old is the team's No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and he thoroughly impressed against the Athletics on Sunday, allowing one run in six innings with nine strikeouts for a win in his debut. Henderson will head back to the farm for now, but after his impressive debut over the weekend, he should be in play as one of the top starting considerations if the Brewers have another need this season. The former fourth-rounder doesn't pass the eye test, but his numbers say otherwise.

Brewers Calling Up Craig Yoho

Sources told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Curt Hogg that the Milwaukee Brewers are recalling pitching prospect Craig Yoho from Triple-A Nashville on Monday. Yoho has been one of the nastiest pitchers in the minors and will now be joining Milwaukee's bullpen after allowing just an unearned run on five hits while walking three, saving one game and striking out nine in 9 2/3 innings for Nashville to begin the season. The 25-year-old right-hander was a former eighth-round selection out of Indiana University Bloomington, and although he may not be immediately thrust into high-leverage situations in his first taste of the big leagues, the Brewers are hoping he can settle down what has been one of the worst bullpens in the league early in the 2025 season. Yoho has a changeup that has basically been unhittable in the minors and should continue to generate plenty of swings and misses at the next level.

Logan Henderson Stellar In His MLB Debut on Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers 23-year-old Logan Henderson had himself an afternoon to remember on Sunday against the Athletics. The 2021 fourth-round pick made his MLB debut on Sunday and went six innings, allowing three hits, one walk, and one earned run to go along with striking out nine Athletics to earn his first MLB win. His only blemish on the afternoon was a one-out solo home run to Seth Brown. The Brewers went on to win the game 14-1, and Henderson certainly made his case to stay in the big leagues. Although the outing was excellent, the Brewers likely plan to reinstate Tobias Myers (oblique) from the injured list this week, so it's unclear whether or not Henderson will stay with the big league club. Regardless, he remains someone fantasy managers should keep their eyes on and should be added to dynasty-format leagues.

Logan Henderson Strikes Out Nine In MLB Debut

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Logan Henderson tossed six innings of one-run ball in his MLB debut on Sunday afternoon. In this outing against the Athletics, Henderson allowed just three hits, one walk, and struck out nine batters, en route to picking up the victory. This was an impressive debut for the 23-year-old. His lone blemish came in the fifth inning when Seth Brown hit a solo blast. Henderson was given the call to the big leagues due to the numerous injuries in the Milwaukee rotation. Earlier in the season, he logged 14 innings at Triple-A to the tune of a 3.21 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP. During this stint, he tallied 24 punchouts with just 10 walks. Given his impressive debut, fantasy managers should expect the former fourth-round pick to earn at least another turn in the rotation. He is worth adding in all 12-team formats.

Brice Turang Notches Three Steals, Scores Three Times On Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang ran wild on Sunday, swiping three bags in a 14-1 drubbing of the Athletics. Turang finished the day 2-for-3 with a walk, three runs scored, an RBI, and the aforementioned three steals. The speedster had his doubters coming into the season after a poor back half of 2024, but he is doing his best to prove them wrong, hitting .322 with a .795 OPS and adding 23 runs, three homers, 11 RBI, and eight steals in 84 at-bats. He's been excellent in the leadoff spot for the Brewers and is looking like a steal (literally) for those who drafted him in the middle rounds of fantasy drafts.

Rhys Hoskins Stays Hot, Delivers Combo Meal On Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins had a big day at the plate on Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a homer and a steal in a 14-1 smashing of the Athletics. Hoskins added two runs and four RBI to round out a dominant overall stat line. It was a much-needed game for the 32-year-old, who was off to a slow start before this one. He's now up to a .262 AVG with six runs, three homers, 12 RBI, and one steal over 56 at-bats. Hoskins has been heating up over the past week, and if he can return to form he should be a solid source of power in fantasy. Now is a good time to grab him and see if he can continue this hot stretch.

Chad Patrick Posts Quality Start In Loss

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chad Patrick looked fairly sharp on the mound during Saturday's game against the Athletics. Patrick allowed seven hits, but only gave up two earned runs over six innings of work. The right-hander also struck out seven batters along the way which certainly helped his fantasy performance in this one. This start was the deepest Patrick has pitched into a game this season. Despite that, Patrick has been solid with two earned runs or less in all five of his outings. He'll offer some deep league streaming value for his next start against the San Francisco Giants.

Brewers Calling Up Caleb Durbin

MLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports that the Milwaukee Brewers are calling up infield prospect Caleb Durbin from Triple-A Nashville on Thursday in order to try and generate more production from third base at the major-league level. Infielder Oliver Dunn was optioned to Nashville in a corresponding move. The 25-year-old Durbin was acquired from the New York Yankees in the Devin Williams trade in the offseason, and he's considered Milwaukee's No. 21 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. Dunn and Vinny Capra weren't getting it done offensively at third with a combined .429 OPS and .188 on-base percentage. Durbin slashed .278/.316/.482 with two homers, three RBI and three steals in 13 games for Nashville. He has 113 steals in 294 minor-league games and will be a waiver-wire option for fantasy managers in deep-mixed leagues that are seeking some speed. Durbin will be making his major-league debut.

Rhys Hoskins Launches First Home Run Of The Season

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins broke out in Tuesday' 5-0 win over the Detroit Tigers. He went 3-for-4 with a towering solo home run in the second inning, his first of the season. The 440-foot blast opened the scoring, as he later added an RBI single in the seventh to help cap off Tuesday's win. It was a strong showing for Hoskins, who had been off to a slow start at the plate. He is now slashing .229/.345/.313 across 48 at-bats. Hoskins and the Brewers will aim to take the series in Wednesday's finale at home against Detroit.

Quinn Priester Picks Up Win On Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester pitched well in a 5-0 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday. Priester tossed five scoreless innings, allowing just one hit, walking three, and striking out four to earn his first win of the season. The 24-year-old hurler notched seven swinging strikes while keeping the Detroit hitters off balance for much of the outing. Priester has looked good in his two starts for the Brewers after they acquired him from the Boston Red Sox in a trade last week. He is worth considering as a streamer in deeper leagues moving forward.

Trevor Megill Ready To Go

MLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports that Milwaukee Brewers right-handed reliever Trevor Megill (knee) was available to pitch in Sunday's series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks and in Monday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers. Megill blew the save and took the loss against Arizona on Saturday by allowing three earned runs on two hits while walking three, and then he revealed that he recently underwent an MRI exam on his knee. After seeking a second opinion, the 31-year-old veteran is apparently alright to continue pitching, but he has not appeared since his blowup outings on Saturday. Megill's performance is worth keeping a close eye on after his knee injury, but as things stand now, he should still be considered the Brewers' favorite for save opportunities. However, he has only one save so far in 2025 to go with a bloated 5.79 ERA and 1.71 WHIP in 4 2/3 innings.
