The Brewers have shared their batting order for their game against the Reds, and Chourio will be a new spot. This is because he will be Milwaukee's leadoff hitter after batting third in their most recent game against the Reds.
Here is the Brewers' full batting order for their Saturday game against the Reds.
Jackson Chourio LF
Luis Lara RF
William Contreras DH
Andrew Vaughn 1B
Garrett Mitchell CF
Joey Ortiz 3B
Cooper Pratt SS
Gary Sanchez C
David Hamilton 2B
Chourio has been in a bit of a slump as of late. In his last two games, he has gone just 1-for-9 and has struck out four times. With this, Chourio is coming off back-to-back shaky games and will be looking to heat back up against the Reds on Saturday.
Chourio was red-hot before his slump, though, as he went on a seven-game hitting streak. With this, he undoubtedly has the potential to heat back up, and it will be fascinating to see what kind of performance he has against Cincinnati after being moved up to their leadoff spot.
