Sal Frelick - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Sitting amid slump Frelick is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Frelick will hit the bench for just the third time this season and for the first time against a right-handed starting pitcher (Eury Perez). Luis Matos will check in as the Brewers' starting right fielder in place of Frelick, who is mired in a 3-for-30 slump at the plate over his last eight games.

Back in action Monday Frelick (side) will start in right field and bat seventh in Monday's game versus the Red Sox.

Impact Frelick suffered a side injury Saturday against the Royals and did not play Sunday, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in Monday's series opener. The 25-year-old outfielder is slashing .192/.344/.346 with one home run and a 5:6 BB:K in his first 32 plate appearances this season.

Held out as precaution Frelick (side) could have played in Sunday's game and was held out as a precaution, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact This would seem to rule out a more serious injury like an oblique strain for Frelick and he should be considered day-to-day for now. The Brewers face righty Brayan Bello in Boston on Monday, so the lefty-hitting Frelick could be back in action after sitting Sunday vs. a southpaw.

Held out of Sunday's lineup Frelick (side) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Impact Frelick exited Saturday's contest due to the injury and will be sidelined for at least one game. The full extent of the injury isn't clear, but it was reported after Saturday's contest that it's not believed to be an oblique strain. Blake Perkins, Brandon Lockridge and Luis Matos are starting from left to right in the outfield for Sunday's series finale in Kansas City.

Team optimistic about injury The Brewers don't believe Frelick suffered an oblique strain, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Frelick was grimacing in pain after his fourth-inning single in the second game of Saturday's twin bill, and after a visit from the training staff, he exited the contest with what was described as left side tightness. However, the Brewers don't seem to think it's a new injury; Frelick had been dealing with pain in that area coming into Saturday. Testing will likely be needed to confirm the extent of the issue.

Goes deep Opening Day Frelick went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, two walks and an additional run scored in Thursday's 14-2 win against the White Sox.

Impact The 25-year-old has never been known for his power output -- his 12 homers during the 2025 regular season was the highest mark of his professional career -- but Frelick wasted no time going deep this year as he crushed a 407-foot shot to right field off Tyler Gilbert during the fifth inning of the season opener. Frelick likely reached close to his power ceiling last year, but his .288/.351/.405 slash line was strong in its own right, and he's off to a great start to 2026.
