Two Brewers Batters Showing the Most Fantasy Potential in 2025

June 17, 2025 by Last Word On Baseball

We all love the game itself, but fantasy baseball can also be at the heart of being a fan. This means that we love the players, we love the team, but we also look at fantasy stats and potential. Who, then, has shown the most potential and promise among the Milwaukee Brewers this year? 

Brewers with the Most Fantasy Potential in 2025

Christian Yelich Remains the Smart Choice

Christian Yelich remains the best fantasy baseball option among Brewers hitters as of June. Yelich is the team leader in home runs, offering the most upside for fantasy categories such as home runs, runs, and RBI among Brewers hitters. Despite some injury risk, Yelich has a proven fantasy pedigree. He continues to be the most productive and reliable bat in the Brewers’ lineup when healthy.

Brice Turang can be a Steal

While Yelich is producing the most for the Brewers for fantasy value, Brice Turang is a player to look out for in that department. Turang leads the team in WAR and provides value in runs and stolen bases. Turang’s fantasy appeal lies in his consistency, multi-category production, and everyday playing time. 

While his power numbers are modest, his ability to get on base and swipe bags makes him a sneaky good deal, particularly in roto leagues or formats that reward runs and stolen bases. His wRC+ of 103 indicates he’s just above league average offensively, and his elite defense keeps him locked into the lineup, minimizing the risk of lost playing time. For fantasy managers looking for a reliable middle infielder who can chip in across the board, Turang represents a smart, cost-effective addition to any roster.

Yelich Reigns Supreme

Christian Yelich, in his seventh season with the Brewers, is the top fantasy baseball asset on the current roster. He offers the best combination of power, run production, and proven track record, despite some injury concerns. The 33-year-old veteran is tied for 21st in MLB with 13 home runs, making him a solid source of power for fantasy rosters. His last 10 games have been particularly strong. Yelich has a .405 batting average and four home runs in that time. This hot streak boosts his short-term fantasy value. Yelich is also coming off back surgery and has had some missed time, but when healthy, he remains a productive fantasy asset. Projections have him ranked as a top-30 outfielder, with continued contributions in home runs, RBI, and runs, plus moderate stolen bases.

His walk rate and plate discipline continue to be assets. Yelich still hits near the top of the Brewers’ lineup, maximizing his opportunities for runs and RBI. While his batting average has dipped from previous years, Yelich’s blend of power, speed, and lineup role keeps him relevant in fantasy leagues. This is especially true for managers seeking a steady veteran presence with multi-category upside.

Don’t Sleep on Turang

Brice Turang has also emerged as a valuable fantasy asset for the Milwaukee Brewers in 2025. This is thanks to his well-rounded skill set and everyday role at second base. As of June 16, Turang is batting .266 with four home runs, 26 RBI, 45 runs scored, and 15 stolen bases across 69 games and 295 plate appearances. He’s also posted a .350 on-base percentage. This goes alongside a .344 slugging percentage. These stats make him a steady contributor in batting average, runs, and stolen bases. These three categories are often difficult to fill in fantasy lineups. His 2.6 WAR ranks among the best for Brewers position players, and his 15 stolen bases are seventh in the NL. This gives Turang strong value for managers seeking speed.
