Jake Fraley Goes Bonkers With Three Swipes, Homer
11 months agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Jake Fraley went 3-for-4 with a home run, an additional run scored, and three stolen bases on Saturday, but the team was outscored 10-8 by the Milwaukee Brewers. The 28-year-old was a common fantasy drop this week amidst a 7-for-46 slump over his prior 13 games to this one. That trend might take a reversal following Saturday's showing. The southpaw is a platoon specialist; Fraley mashes right-handed pitching for an effective .293/.385/.471 triple-slash line while going just 1-for-23 versus lefties overall. Fraley is now up to 19 runs scored, six bombs, 36 RBI, and 11 pilfers. The speedy outfielder is worth a look for some lower-end value, but don't expect much in the way of power considering his bottom-one percent average exit velocity of 84.4 mph.
