21-Year-Old OutfielderOF
Milwaukee Brewers
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Chourio inked an eight-year, $80 million extension with the Brewers in November of 2023 before making his MLB debut, and he lived up to the hype during his rookie campaign and finished with 21 homers, 22 steals and a .275/.327/.464 slash line in 148 contests. However, the road wasn't smooth for the young outfielder, as he struggled mightily through the first two months of the season and had a .581 OPS at the end of May. Chourio then got comfortable and had an .883 OPS the rest of the way, which likely would have been enough to win him National League Rookie of the Year most seasons, but Paul Skenes and Jackson Merrill were even more impressive. Chourio's numbers were supported by a .278 xBA and .438 xSLG, so there's no reason to believe the production is unsustainable. He'll turn just 21 years old in March and has as much upside as anyone in the sport while coming off an already strong rookie year. Read Past Outlooks

Chourio went 0-for-5 with five strikeouts in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees.
ANALYSIS
Chourio carried a hot bat in spring training with a 1.224 OPS and just seven strikeouts in 53 Cactus League plate appearances, but he nearly matched that total Opening Day. The 21-year-old had a chance to redeem himself during the ninth inning with the bases loaded, but he was instead punched out by former teammate Devin Williams to complete the platinum sombrero. Chourio will attempt to turn the page Saturday after Friday's team off day and get back to the .914 OPS he posted during the second half of the 2024 regular season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Chourio became the fourth teenager to go 20-40 in the past 60 seasons, with Ronald Acuna being the most recent to accomplish the feat in 2017. He was also the first teenager to go 20-20 solely in the upper levels of the minors since Delmon Young in 2005. Chourio's surface stats weren't outstanding early in the year, in part due to the pre-tacked balls the Southern League used in the first half of the season. However, with standard balls back in play, Chourio slashed .324/.379/.538 with 11 home runs, 21 steals and a 13.4 percent strikeout rate in his final 57 games across Double-A and Triple-A, and he doesn't turn 20 until March. He has all the makings of a future first-round pick in fantasy, and he also happens to be an excellent defensive center fielder. The Brewers already have three very capable young defensive center fielders in Sal Frelick, Garrett Mitchell and Joey Wiemer, but they inked Chourio to a record-setting $80 million contract this offseason, so there are no financial incentives for the team to start him in the minors.
Chourio made some noise on the backfields last spring around his 18th birthday, but nobody could have seen his historic 2022 season coming. A seven-figure international signee out of Venezuela in 2021, Chourio skipped over complex ball and was assigned directly to Single-A - a very aggressive assignment. He was unfazed, slashing .324/.373/.600, good for a 160 wRC+, with 12 home runs and 10 steals in 62 games before getting a bump to High-A. The only 18-year-olds who have done similar damage at that level are guys like Juan Soto and Ronald Acuna. Chourio's power (.236 ISO) was steady after the promotion, but his BABIP fell from .423 to .267, which impacted his slash line (.252/.317/.488). The Brewers rewarded Chourio with a brief taste of Double-A to close the year. Chourio's 35.2 Hard% is up there with Double-A and Triple-A sluggers who are 4-to-6 years older than him, and he is currently a plus runner. His 27.2 K% and 7.4 BB% aren't figures typically associated with top-10 prospects, but there aren't other examples of players his age logging a .947 OPS across three full-season levels, so it's hard to ding the plate skills too much at this stage. He could follow the Corbin Carroll/Gunnar Henderson path and debut in September if he excels in his age-19 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Youngest player to 20-20
OFMilwaukee Brewers
September 13, 2024
Chourio's homer during Thursday's win against the Giants was his 20th of the season, making him the youngest player in MLB history to reach 20 home runs and 20 steals in a season, per Sarah Langs of MLB.com.
ANALYSIS
The 20-year-old inked an eight-year, $80 million extension with the Brewers in November before making his MLB debut, and he's lived up to the hype as a rookie with a .791 OPS through 132 games. Chourio got off to a slow start, as he had a .581 OPS in his first 50 big-league games, but he's put himself back in the NL Rookie of the Year conversation with a .305/.363/.540 slash line in 83 games since the start of June.
