I'm guessing 6-8 weeks, just like any other broken bone. As long as there is no other issue with the knee, he should be just fine for next season.

Seems like such weird/bad luck injury.

Milwaukee Brewers star outfielder Christian Yelich does not need surgery on his fractured right kneecap and is not expected to suffer any long-term effects from the injury.
Brewers general manager David Stearns told reporters Thursday that Yelich's leg will be "immobilized for a while," saying the expected recovery time frame is eight to 10 weeks.
Stearns also said that Yelich would seek a second opinion either this weekend or next week.
"At this point, it looks like we've dodged a little bit of a bullet," Stearns said. "He will not need surgery."
