Sal Frelick Working Out On The Infield
10 months agoMilwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick has been working out at second and third base this offseason under the tutelage of former big-league second baseman Dustin Pedroia. Frelick rated as an above-average defender in both right and center field in his rookie season in 2023, but he's adding to his versatility in camp. The arrival of top prospect Jackson Chourio and the return of Garrett Mitchell, who missed most of last year with a shoulder injury, give the Brew Crew a surplus of outfielders. If Milwaukee likes what they see from Frelick on the infield, he could become a possibility for them at the hot corner or at the keystone in 2024. The 23-year-old former first-rounder would greatly increase his fantasy value by adding to his positional eligibility, but it remains to be seen if that will actually happen. Despite underwhelming at the plate in 2023, Frelick has great plate discipline and could serve as a high-average leadoff man for fantasy managers.
