Player Outlook
Acquired from Seattle prior to the 2022 season, Jake Fraley has emerged as a quality platoon outfielder/DH in his two years with Cincinnati. He spent time on the injured list last season with wrist and toe injuries, the latter of which required October surgery to repair. Fraley is expected to be fully ready for the start of spring training in 2024. Reds manager David Bell was rigid in his usage of Fraley, limiting him to a mere four starts and 41 plate appearances against left-handed pitching all season. When he had the platoon advantage, Fraley slashed .268/.348/.467 with all 15 of his home runs. He's done a better job of being aggressive within the strike zone, adding nearly 12 percentage points to his Z-Swing% over the past two years, and the speed element of his game showed up in 2023 in the form of 21 steals in 26 attempts. The fact that he doesn't play against lefty pitching limits his counting-stat upside, but among strict platoon bats in MLB, Fraley is right up there with (or just behind) the best.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: Plans to test out hand with swings

    Fraley plans to test out his injured right hand with some swings Thursday, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. X-rays on Fraley's hand came back clean after he exited Tuesday's contest versus the Padres following a hit by pitch. However, he still has some swelling and will be absent from the lineup Thursday for a second straight day. Consider the outfielder day-to-day.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: X-rays negative

    X-rays on Fraley's right hand came back negative Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Fraley is reportedly dealing with swelling after taking a pitch off his hand during the first inning of Tuesday's contest, but he seems to have avoided a serious injury. The Reds will re-evaluate his hand Wednesday, but it's likely the 28-year-old outfielder sits out a game or two in order to recover.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: Three hits, steal in loss

    Fraley went 3-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Giants. Fraley was the only Cincinnati hitter with multiple hits in the contest. He had gone 14 games without a multi-hit effort, batting a paltry .132 (5-for-38) in that span. That stretch put a significant damper on the outfielder's solid start to the year, but he's still slashing .304/.368/.392 with six steals, one home run, five RBI and 16 runs scored over 87 plate appearances. Fraley sat out a couple of games versus right-handed pitchers early in May, but it appears that was temporary as he has resumed a strong-side platoon role between right field and designated hitter.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: Sits against right-hander again

    Fraley is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres. For the second straight day, Fraley finds himself on the bench with a right-handed pitcher (Joe Musgrove) on the hill. The Reds haven't indicated that Fraley is nursing an injury, but the outfielder has thus far struggled to bounce back since returning to the lineup after a week-long absence due to an illness. In his first three games back in action, Fraley went 0-for-11 with five strikeouts. If Fraley is unable to show improvement in his subsequent starting opportunities, he could fade into more of a part-time role for Cincinnati.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: Still out Thursday

    Fraley (illness) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.

According to Mark Sheldon of MLB.com, manager David Bell relayed Wednesday that Fraley has been showing improvement, so the Reds are seemingly hopeful that the 28-year-old outfielder will return to action at some point during the weekend series versus the Rangers.

  • Reds' Jake Fraley: Won't start Sunday

    Fraley is not in the Reds' starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels due to an illness, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports. Fraley won't start for a second consecutive game, though he did pinch hit for Jonathan India (illness) in Saturday's contest. Fraley would normally get the start against a right-hander, but he appears to have picked up the bug that India has. Fraley is 1-for-10 over his last four appearances, which has slowed down his otherwise hot start to the season. He's slashing .362/.423/.511 with four doubles, one home run and four RBI over 52 plate appearances while stealing five bases.

He's recorded two hits in four straight contests, going 8-for-16 (.500) with seven runs and four RBI over that span. Fraley routinely sits against left-handed pitching, but he's been very productive when in the lineup, slashing .432/.462/.622 with 12 runs, four RBI and four steals through 39 plate appearances.
