ANALYSIS: Following a cold start to the season, Jake Fraley has finally found his stroke. He's recorded five multi-hit performances over his last eight starts, including three home runs in that span. Overall, Fraley is slashing .277/.374/.454 with a 119 wRC+ and .176 ISO.

Fraley flashed his power-hitting upside in 2022, launching 12 home runs over a 68-game stint with Cincinnati. That included a .468 slugging percentage and 121 wRC+, which is not far off from his 2023 numbers. A repeated home run pace is not outside the range of outcomes for this season. If Fraley has indeed put his cold April behind him, then a 25-30 long ball output is certainly within reach.
