Christian Yelich (back) returning to action Wednesday for Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich will start at designated hitter and bat third in Wednesday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Brady Singer and the Kansas City Royals.
What It Means
The Brewers activated Yelich from the injured list on Wednesday and optioned Tyler Black to the minors in a corresponding roster move. Yelich had been sidelined since April 12 due to a lower-back strain, so the Brewers might keep him in the DH role for a few games. Jake Bauers will replace Jackson Chourio as the starting left fielder on Wednesday.
numberFire's models project Yelich for 13.3 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Brewers' implied total (4.15) is No. 14 in the majors today.
