When the 2018 baseball season began, there was plenty of concern among fans of the Milwaukee Brewers that the team had “too many outfielders.” Those worries didn’t end up lasting too long, however. Ryan Braun, Christian Yelich, and Lorenzo Cain have all spent time on the disabled list, Domingo Santana lost his power stroke and was demoted to the minors, and neither Keon Broxton nor Brett Phillips have really set the world on fire while bouncing between AAA and the major leagues. First baseman Eric Thames (who is currently on the DL) has been converted to play mostly outfield, and of course Hernan Perez has seen some time on the grass, but his 76 wRC+ hardly warrants any sort of regular playing time.
