Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich is racking up the hardware. He was named a 2018 Silver Slugger in the National League on Thursday. 

The team made the announcement on Twitter Thursday afternoon. 

Yelich is on his way to an NL MVP award, but he’s also won the Hank Aaron Award and was a finalist for a gold glove.
