• Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Sizzling this spring

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Chourio went 2-for-3 with a double and two runs in Monday's Cactus League game against the Mariners. Chourio shined as a rookie and has picked up where he left off this spring, going 9-for-23 (.391) with a 3:2 BB:K while recording both a trio of doubles and steals. Chourio -- who turned 21 years old Tuesday -- will play regularly in 2025, and it looks like he will occupy a prominent spot in the batting order, as he has hit either leadoff or second in eight of the nine exhibition contests he has appeared in to date.

• Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Will play some center field in 2025

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Chourio will play some center field this season, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Chourio was primarily a center fielder in the minors, but the Brewers played him exclusively in the corner outfield spots in 2024 because, according to Murphy, Chourio "couldn't catch a flyball." The 20-year-old graded out with a plus-7 Outs Above Average in right field and a minus-1 OAA in left field last season. Murphy didn't reveal how much center field Chourio might play in 2025, but if he looks comfortable there, it would give the manager more potential lineup combinations.
