Jackson Chourio DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio saw his five-game hitting streak come to an end on Sunday. However, Chourio started a new streak during Monday's game versus the Boston Red Sox. Chourio wasted no time as he blasted a leadoff home run off left-hander Garrett Crochet to begin the game. It was the first pitch he saw, which isn't surprising given Chourio likes swinging early in the count. He finished the day 1-for-4 with that solo homer and one RBI in the win. It hasn't been a good month at the plate for Chourio, but fantasy managers should ride it out.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio went 3-for-5 in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Rays. All three hits were singles, but it was still a fruitful day for fantasyas he also scored once and stole two bases in the contest. The 21-year-old is off to a fine start this season, now with a .267-6-24-24-5 stat line with a .323 wOBA and 104 wRC+, ranking him as one of the top 40 players in fantasy, however, it could be better. The right-handed hitter is walking at a minuscule 1.8 percent rate, leading to a poor .282 on-base percentage. If he can start to work more counts and get on base more, then more steals and runs should follow; last season the Venezuelan'swalk rate was below league average, but was still much higher at 6.8 percent. Nevertheless, he remains one of fantasy's five-category contributors and should remain a top 40 option throughout theyear.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio was on fire at the plate during Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He was hitting the ball all over the park in this one, but his biggest hit of the game came in the ninth inning. Chourio smacked a game-tying two-run blast off right-hander Ryan Helsley in the final frame. Sadly for Chourio, the Cardinals would end up winning the game in the bottom half of the inning. Despite that, Chourio went 4-for-5 with a home run, double, and three RBI in the loss. He was in a slump before this series in St. Louis. Now, Chourio has six hits over his last two games which is more than he had in his previous eight games combined coming into this series. The potential is through the roof, so Chourio needs to be rostered and started everywhere.
