McCutchen has spent 13 seasons in the majors, the past three of which have been with the Philadelphia Phillies. In total, the 35-year-old has 1,052 runs, 933 runs batted in, 270 home runs, and a .476 slugging percentage.
Last year, McCutchen showed that he’s still got some power left in his bat, knocking in 27 round-trippers, his highest total since 2017.
The Brewers have legitimate World Series aspirations this season. McCutchen solidifies their outfield platoon, and they have a dangerous combination of solid offensive contributors, defensive specialists, and a dynamite pitching staff.
That’s reflected in their betting odds at FanDuel Sportsbook, as the Brew Crew are betting favorites to take down the NL Central and sit near the top of the World Series futures board at +1600.
