2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 2021 first-round pick, Frelick made his MLB debut in late July and had three homers and an .870 OPS in his first 21 big-league games, but he struggled the rest of the way and finished with a .246/.341/.351 slash line in 223 plate appearances. The underwhelming finish aside, there was plenty to like about the young outfielder's first taste of the big leagues, with a 12.6 percent walk rate and 16.6 percent strikeout rate standing out. He also played well defensively with plus-six DRS while splitting his time between center and right field. Frelick still has the upside of a potential high-average leadoff man and should have the leg up on a starting job entering spring training, especially with his prospect pedigree. However, there's hardly any guarantees for his role in 2024 given Milwaukee's plethora of young outfield talent. Read Past Outlooks

Stat Review
How does Sal Frelick compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
This doesn't usually happen, but Frelick has been the exact player the Brewers hoped they were getting when they selected him out of Boston College with the No. 15 overall pick in 2021. A speedy 5-foot-10 center fielder with a potentially plus-plus hit tool, Frelick hit .331/.404/.480 with an 11.3 K%, 9.3 BB%, 11 home runs and 24 steals in a full season spread across the top three levels of the minors. His production for Triple-A Nashville was particularly eye-popping, as he had 16 strikeouts, 19 walks and a .365 average in 46 games. Power (21.1 Hard%) and arm strength are his two weakest tools, but it's hard not to envision a throwback premium leadoff hitter who hits for a high average and scores a ton of runs while stealing around 20 bags. Frelick is probably the best overall player of Garrett Mitchell and Esteury Ruiz, and the Brewers arguably have the most invested in him of that trio, so he is a good bet to win consistent work in center and left field at some point this season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Limited work at third base
Frelick likely won't see much playing time at third base early in the season in the wake of Garrett Mitchell's finger injury, per Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
ANALYSIS
Frelick appeared set to begin the campaign as a regular at the hot corner and pick up dual-position eligibility early in the season, but he'll now see most of his time in center field. The 23-year-old's low-power profile wouldn't fit a prototypical third baseman, but the extra position would certainly be a benefit to fantasy managers, assuming he achieves it later in the year.
