Before the neck issue surfaced, Yelich had been in the midst of one of his most productive stretches of the season. Over his final 15 games in August, Yelich slashed .328/.400/.500 with three home runs, 12 runs and 10 RBI.

EDGE Analysis

Yelich hasn't showed much power this season and is slugging a mere .396 in 455 at-bats. The home run gives him 11 on the year, which is a far cry from his 2018 and 2019 seasons, when he hit 36 and 44, respectively. Yelich's main category contribution this year has been his ability to tally runs from the top of the Brewers lineup. He has 83 runs this season and could flirt with his fourth 100-run season by season's end.
