    • Nick Castellanos goes deep in victory over Marlins
      Nick Castellanos clubbed his third home run of the season on Friday night as the Phillies crushed the Marlins in Miami.

      Advice: Castellanos opened the scoring in the contest with his 400-foot (104.4 mph EV) solo shot off of Trevor Rogers in the second inning. That would be his only hit in five at-bats on the night. For the season, the 32-year-old slugger is hitting an underwhelming .207/.268/.303 with just three homers and 13 RBI.

    • On bench for third straight game
      Chourio is absent from the lineup for Friday's game versus the Cardinals.

      Advice: In three games since Christian Yelich returned from the injured list, Chourio has been out of the lineup each time, although he did get a couple plate appearances off the bench Wednesday. Yelich, Sal Frelick and Blake Perkins appear to be ahead of Chourio in the outfield pecking order, and Jake Bauers might be as well. The 20-year-old rookie is slashing just .205/.275/.397 through his first 25 MLB contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:46 pm

    • Three hits in win
      Yelich went 3-for-4 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's win over the Cardinals.

      Advice: The outfielder singled in his first at-bat before coming home on a Rhys Hoskins home run as the Brewers took an early 3-0 lead. Yelich would then add an RBI triple in the fifth to extend Milwaukee's lead, and he finished the game with three hits for only the second time this season. He went hitless in his first game back from the injured list but he's hit safely in 11 of 12 games for the season. He's also driven in at least one run in four of his last six contests.

    • Christian Yelich posts three hits, RBI in blowout
      Christian Yelich went 3-for-4 with an RBI on Thursday, lifting the Brewers to a 7-1 blowout victory over the division-rival Cardinals.

      Advice: Yelich shook off Wednesday’s tough 0-for-5 performance in his return from the injured list against the Royals with a stellar three-hit performance in his return to American Family Field. The 32-year-old corner outfielder padded Milwaukee’s lead with a run-scoring triple in the fifth inning as part of a three-hit effort that raised his full-season batting average to a sublime .333 (16-for-48) mark through 13 games. If he can avoid the back issues that have plagued him the last few years, he’ll remain an impact contributor for fantasy managers. Rotoworld Thursday, 8:26 pm

    • Jackson Chourio not in Thursday’s lineup
      Jackson Chourio is not in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Chourio has shown some signs of life with six hits in 19 at-bats over his last seven contests, but he’ll take a seat to open Thursday’s contest with Christian Yelich back in left field, Sal Frelick in center and Jake Bauers in right. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:14 pm

    • Sits down Thursday
      Chourio isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Thursday's game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Chourio will miss his second start in a row Thursday, though he came off the bench and went 0-for-2 during Wednesday's loss to the Royals. Christian Yelich, Sal Frelick and Jake Bauers will start across Milwaukee's outfield while Chourio rests. Rotowire.com Thursday, 1:56 pm

    • Getting Wednesday off
      Chourio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

      Advice: 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.com Wednesday, 10:01 am

    • Brewers activate Christian Yelich from 10-day IL
      Brewers activated Christian Yelich (back) from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: Yelich is back in the lineup for the Brewers on Wednesday after he was sidelined for the last three weeks. The 32-year-old outfielder is off to a good start this season slashing .333/.422/.744 with five home runs and 11 RBI in his first 11 games. Rotoworld Wednesday, 9:44 am
