The Milwaukee Brewers, who have suffered six consecutive losses, have received more bad news: their star player Yelich will be sidelined for a month.

The Milwaukee Brewers have placed their star player Christian Yelich on the 10-day injured list. The team stated that he needs to rest until mid-May due to an adductor muscle strain, meaning the former National League MVP will be absent for at least a month. The Brewers recently endured a six-game losing streak, and now losing their offensive core undoubtedly adds to their woes.

Yelich was substituted before his third at-bat in Monday's away game against the Washington Nationals, and the Brewers ultimately lost the game 6-8. Manager Pat Murphy expressed pessimistic views about Yelich's injury after the game. Today, the Brewers lost 7-9 to the Toronto Blue Jays in extra innings, marking their sixth consecutive defeat. Their current record is 8 wins and 8 losses, placing them fourth in the National League Central division.

Before his injury, Yelich was performing quite well, with a batting average of .314 and an OPS of .826 at the start of the season, contributing one home run and 10 RBIs. This year marks his ninth season with the Brewers. He won the National League MVP in 2018, has been selected to the All-Star team three times in his career, earned three Silver Slugger Awards and one Gold Glove, and has long been the team's marquee star.
