Christian Yelcih was the third in the lineup this year and he handled both right-handed and left-handed pitchers. His departure had a large impact on the lineup as he was on pace to hit 20+ home runs, 80+ RBI, possibly 40 stolen bases and was in contention for another batting title (.315 batting average). It is unknown how productive he will be if he returns but mentally it would be a large boost for the Brewers.
