William Contreras's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras (knee) was playing through a minor knee sprain during the Wild-Card Series against the New York Mets, according to general manager Matt Arnold. The Brewers revised their Game 3 lineup last week as a result to move Contreras from catcher to the designated hitter spot. In the three-game Wild-Card Series, Contreras went 2-for-12 with two RBI and three strikeouts while grounding into a double play. He also hit .257 (19-for-74) with three home runs, three doubles, 12 RBI, 16 walks and 22 strikeouts in 23 games in the final month of the regular season in September. The good news is that the 26-year-old Venezuelan backstop won't require surgery on his knee and should be a full-go for the start of spring training next February. Contreras has become one of the better hitting catchers in the big leagues.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, a home run, four RBI, and three runs scored in Saturday's 15-8 win over the Diamondbacks. The 26-year-old's bat has cooled somewhat in September, slashing .231/.354/.436 for the month, but overall he is having a fantastic season, leading all catchers in fantasy with a strong .280-22-88-94-6 line with a .358 wOBA and 131 wRC+. He'll look to finish strong as September has been his second-best month batting average-wise for his career, hitting .308 during the final month since 2020.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras homered on Saturday in a 2-1 victory over the Cleveland Guardians. Contreras connected in the fourth inning off Cleveland starter Tanner Bibee. The backstop is hitting .284 with 17 home runs, 71 RBI, five stolen bases, and 80 runs scored on the season, earning some talk as a Most Valuable Player candidate. The Brewers will need a continued superstar performance from Contreras as they seek to win the National League Central this season.

Contreras connected off of Dodgers reliever Joe Kelly for his 14th home run of the season. He's hitting .286/.359/.457 this season and is stacking up one of the top seasons for a fantasy catcher. The 26-year-old Venezuelan is one of the top fantasy options and the position and should continue to be in the near future.

Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras continued his strong season on Thursday in a nine-run victory versus his former team, the Atlanta Braves. Contreras went 3-for-5 with a walk, two-run home run and three RBI to add to his impressive 2024 campaign, one that has seen him become one of the top catchers in baseball. On the season, Contreras is now hitting .285 with 13 homers, 66 RBI and five stolen bases. A bonus for Contreras is that the Brewers rarely rest the backstop, using him as their designated hitter when he is not on the field. The backstop will look to keep the momentum going against the division rival Cincinnati Reds and starting pitcher Carson Spiers on Friday.
