Sal Frelick's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang and outfielder Sal Frelick are both out of the starting lineup on Wednesday with a left-hander on the mound. Turang and Frelick are on the bench for the third straight day with the Miami Marlins just bombarding the Brewers with lefty starters. With the two lefty hitters out again for Milwaukee, Andruw Monasterio is playing second and batting leadoff, with Blake Perkins in center field and in the nine-hole against Marlins lefty Jesus Luzardo. Even in the leadoff spot on Wednesday, the 26-year-old Monasterio is a deep DFS sleeper while entering the day with a .182 average (4-for-22) with a homer, two RBI and two steals in just 12 games. Perkins is even more of a DFS long shot at the bottom of the batting order for the Brew Crew. Perkins has four homers while hitting .233 (31-for-133) in 2024.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's tilt with the New York Yankees. Frelick will sit against the Yankees' left-hander, Carlos Rodon. Joey Wiemer will take his place in left field and hit ninth. Frelick is hitting .267 with no home runs, five RBI, three stolen bases, and 14 runs scored. Frelick is only 2-for-18 since last Saturday. Frelick has 101 plate appearances thus far in 2024, and only eight of those have come against left-handed pitching. This appears to be the case Saturday night. Look for him back in the lineup Sunday afternoon when veteran right-hander Marcus Stroman takes the mound for the Yankees.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick is starting in center field and is batting leadoff again on Tuesday against the visiting Minnesota Twins and right-hander Louie Varland. Frelick was on the bench for the season opener last Thursday against a left-hander, but since then he's started and hit leadoff in three straight games. It's good news for Frelick when the Brewers face right-handed pitchers, although he's off to a slow start at the plate through two games played, going 1-for-9 with a stolen base and a run scored. The 23-year-old also worked on the infield in spring training and could be an option for the Brew Crew at second or third base on occasion in 2024 given all of the team's outfield options. Frelick isn't a bad DFS play on days he's hitting leadoff against a right-hander.
