Fantasy Impact:
According to Brewers manager Pat Murphy, Yelich has been experiencing back pain since the August 25 series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He was scratched from Wednesday's lineup, with Jackson Chourio serving as the designated hitter and Blake Perkins in center field. This configuration could remain for Thursday's game.
