Outfield

Left Field: Christian Yelich

After playing in right field last season, Yelich will be moved across the outfield this time around. Still, all the eyes will be on him at the plate to see if he can regain his MVP form following his injury that prematurely ended his 2019 campaign.

Center Field: Lorenzo Cain

Cain is coming off a down season which saw him post an OPS below .700. He’s still one of the best defensive center fielders in the game, even at 33, and that’s exactly what the Brewers need from him.

Right Field:  Ryan Braun/Avisail Garcia

Even with spending some time at first base, Braun will split time with Garcia in right field. Braun had a very productive and healthy 2019–something he hopes to repeat in 2020. As for Garcia, he’s hoping to replicate 2017–his lone All-Star season.
