William Contreras is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s first-half finale against the Pirates.

It’s the third straight week that Contreras has gotten a breather on a Sunday. If you’re going to get a day off though, doing so against Paul Skenes isn’t the worst idea in the world. Gary Sanchez will start in his place behind the dish and bat fifth for the Brewers on Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh.

William Contreras is absent from the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s ballgame against the Rockies at Coors Field.

Since he shoulders a very heavy workload for a catcher, the Brewers are careful to mix in off days for Contreras to get him off of his feet once in a while, with Sunday afternoon games being the most common. Gary Sanchez will start in his place behind the dish and bat seventh against Diamondbacks’ southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez.

William Contreras is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s showdown against the Cubs.

Contreras sees as much time behind the dish as anyone in the league these days, so giving him a break on occasion to keep him fresh is always a good idea. Gary Sanchez will do the catching for the Brewers on Sunday and will bat sixth against a host of Cubs’ relievers.

Christian Yelich is absent from the Brewers’ starting lineup for Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Braves.

If you’re going to give Yelich a day off for rest, doing so against one of the best left-handers in baseball in Chris Sale makes a great deal of sense. Gary Sanchez will function as the Brewers’ designated hitter on Saturday and will bat cleanup.

William Contreras is not in Milwaukee’s starting lineup on Thursday against the Guardians.

It appears to just be a routine day off for the veteran backstop, who is hitting .276/.308/.414 through his first 65 plate appearances in June with two homers and nine RBI. Contreras’ power has been disappointing, as it was in 2025, and he now has just a .401 slugging percentage over his last 954 plate appearances. Gary Sánchez will draw the start at catcher against Guards LHP Parker Messick.

Christian Yelich is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Rockies at Coors Field.

Kyle Freeland doesn’t really qualify as a tough left-hander that fantasy managers would want Yelich to sit against, but he’ll get a breather in this one as the Brewers continue to manage his workload in an effort to keep him healthy for the remainder of the season. William Contreras will serve as the team’s designated hitter in this one with Gary Sanchez working behind the plate and batting fifth for the Brewers.

Jackson Chourio is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s contest against the Astros in Houston.

It looks to be nothing more than a routine day off for the dynamic 22-year-old outfielder. William Contreras is also getting a breather for the Brewers in this one. Sal Frelick will start in right field and bat seventh while Gary Sanchez does the catching and hits sixth for the Brewers against Astros’ right-hander Tatsuya Imai on Sunday.
