2026 Fantasy Outlook
Frelick offered minimal fantasy upside in 2024 with a .259/.320/.335 slash line, two home runs, 18 steals, 32 RBI and 66 runs, but he improved across the board last season with 12 homers, 19 stolen bases, 63 RBI, 72 runs and a .288/.351/.405 line. His strikeout and walk rates remained pretty consistent in 2025 at 13.5 percent and 7.9 percent, respectively, but the outfielder improved his quality of contact with an average exit velocity of 85.4 mph and hard-hit rate of 27.2 percent. Those figures themselves aren't particularly good, but it's a notable increase after Frelick ranked as the worst qualified hitter for both categories in 2024. Related to that improvement, he increased his pull rate 11 points to 42.3 percent and his launch angle more than two degrees, so pulling the ball in the air more appears to have been a focal point last offseason. Frelick has a limited ceiling since he likely doesn't have much more power in the tank, but he could certainly boost his steals production and counting stats in 2026 and should have a decent floor given his average and contact skills.

Sitting out versus left-hander
Frelick is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Blue Jays.
Analysis
The left-handed-hitting Frelick is typically an everyday guy, but he'll receive a day off Thursday as the Blue Jays send southpaw Patrick Corbin to the bump. It will be Luis Matos is right field and batting sixth for the Brewers.

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.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
2023
Frelick remains a much more reliable real-life contributor than fantasy asset, as he totaled just two home runs, 32 RBI and 66 runs scored in 145 games in 2024. The value for the Brewers comes from his strong defense (plus-16 Defensive Runs Saved and plus-six Outs Above Average), speed (18 steals) and contact skills (.259 average and 15 percent strikeout rate). Frelick's average exit velocity of 83.4 mph and hard-hit rate of 19.4 percent were both the worst in the majors among qualified players, so there isn't much more meat to get off the bone. He could see more action in the infield in 2025 following the departure of Willy Adames, but that potential versatility won't significantly affect his fantasy upside given the current production. Frelick could improve his average, stolen bases and runs scored as he enters his second full MLB season, but his profile as a hitter makes him an untenable option in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues.

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.
