Welcome to the show Christian Yelich! The reigning National League MVP picked up right where he left off last season and shows no indications of slowing down. Now, Yelich’s MLB The Show 19 market value is on the rise.
Yelich in rare company
What Christian Yelich is doing on the field is almost video-gamish! Yelich smacked a home run for the fourth consecutive game making him one of only six players in MLB history to do so. At this pace Yelich may hit 162 home runs. Okay, that won’t happen, but he does deserve some early season praise.
By homering on Sunday, Yelich tied Willie Mays, Mark McGwire, Nelson Cruz, Chris Davis, and Trevor Story. That is some nice company to share a record with.
Not only is Yelich off to a great start, so are the Brewers and that makes this streak that much better.
Yelich MLB The Show Market Rise
Fans of MLB The Show know that Christian Yelich is one of the best outfielders in the game. He entered the season with an 86 rating. That tied him for second overall with Bryce Harper and Aaron Judge for top right fielders.
Now that Yelich is off to such a great start, will he climb over the competition? In the latest MLB The Show 19 market update, Yelich is going up.
As you can see in the graphic above, Yelich is steadily trending upward since Opening Day. While it will be hard to keep up his torrid pace, Yelich should remain rock steady all season long.
Now the question is can he become the first player to homer in his first five games to start a season? The Brewers will travel to Cincinnati for a game against the Reds on Monday, April 1. If Yelich hits a home run Monday, it will set an MLB record, and surely keep his MLB The Show 19 market value rising.
