Brewers place OF Jackson Chourio on IL due to fractured hand
The Milwaukee Brewers placed star outfielder Jackson Chourio on the 10-day injured list Thursday because of a fracture in his left hand — an injury that occurred when he was playing for Venezuela in the WBC on March 4.
Chourio was hit by a pitch from Clayton Beeter while playing in a WBC exhibition game against the Nationals. He had played since then, but had been experiencing discomfort in his hand, and an MRI revealed a small hairline fracture of the third metacarpal.
The Brewers' early estimate is that Chourio will miss two to four weeks before he returns to the lineup for a team that will try to get back to the playoffs after finishing last season with the best record in baseball.

Brewers' Christian Yelich: Could play more outfield
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said on MLB Network on Thursday that Yelich "wants to play the outfield, and I think that he will" in the wake of Jackson Chourio's (hand) placement on the injured list, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
The veteran slugger made just 19 appearances in the outfield across his 150 regular-season games last year, as he primarily served as a designated hitter for the first time in his 13-year career. It helped Yelich to stay healthy and total 29 home runs and 103 RBI, which are his best marks since 2019 and 2018, respectively, but he could play the field more early in 2026 with Chourio sidelined for at least the next couple weeks.
