Rotowire
Chourio (ankle) will start in left field and bat second Saturday against the Reds.

Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Sitting after three straight starts
Rotowire
Chourio is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs.
Chourio had started each of the previous three games, but two of those starts came while the Cubs sent left-handers Justin Steele and Shota Imanaga to the mound. The rookie outfielder will hit the bench Thursday against right-hander Jameson Taillon and still looks to be stuck in a short-side platoon role in the corner outfield with Sal Frelick.

Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Gets fourth straight start
Rotowire
Chourio will start in left field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.
Chourio was on the bench for a stretch of four straight games from last Wednesday through Saturday, but he's now picked up starts in each of the subsequent four contests. Though he's reached base only twice over his last nine contests and carries a weak .579 OPS for the season into Wednesday's game, Chourio could nonetheless continue to see near-everyday playing time while Jake Bauers sees less time in the corner outfield and fills in at first base for the injured Rhys Hoskins (hamstring). Additionally, the struggling Blake Perkins -- who sat against right-handed starting pitchers both of the previous two days -- seems to have moved into more of a fourth-outfielder role of late.

Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Getting Wednesday off
Rotowire
Chourio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Chourio is hitting .357 with one stolen base over his first five games of May, but he's still slashing just .193/.233/.263 overall since April 16 and has seen his job security slip a bit as a result. The rookie will find himself on the bench Wednesday for the third time in seven games.

Rotowire
Chourio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Brewers' Jackson Chourio: Continues piling up hits
Rotowire
Chourio went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's victory over the Mets.
The 20-year-old has started all three games the Brewers have played to date, and he has hardly been overmatched, as he reached base twice in all three contests. Chourio hit ninth against right-handed starters Saturday and Sunday after hitting leadoff against a lefty in the opener, and that arrangement will likely continue for the time being. However, he could certainly find himself hitting higher against righties if he continues displaying the skills that made him one of the top prospects in baseball.
