2025 Player Outlook
There were rumblings heading into 2024 that Frelick could get some time at 3B, but they ultimately didn’t happen, so Frelick only has OF eligibility heading into 2025. He only hit two home runs in 145 games last season, which isn’t all that surprising when you see his 83.4 mph average exit velocity, 0.7 percent barrel rate, 19.4 percent hard hit rate, and 1.5% HR/FB ratio. While you won’t get much power for Frelick in 2025, he makes a lot of contact and should hit around .255 with a stolen base total in the mid-to-upper teens. While Frelick doesn’t have significant split issues, he is at a platoon risk in the Milwaukee outfield. He can give fantasy managers a respectable batting average and some cheap speed, but outside of that, not too much is noteworthy about Frelick.
