Milwaukee Brewers fans saw their worst nightmare come true on Tuesday when it was announced that Christian Yelich would miss the remainder of the season with a broken kneecap. The news came right as the team was inching closer to a possible Wild Card spot.
Obviously you can’t completely replace a player of Yelich’s caliber. But if anyone could potentially take the torch and lead the team offensively, Yasmani Grandal is in the middle of a stretch that proves that he might have as good an ability to as any.

Grandal can be a notoriously streaky hitter, but he has definitely heated back up in the month of September.
