2025 Fantasy Outlook

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.

June 20, 2025

Frelick went 3-for-5 with two RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 17-6 win over the Twins.

ANALYSIS
Frelick delivered his fifth game of the year with at least three knocks, and he also established a season high in runs scored. Friday marked the outfielder's seventh contest in a row in the leadoff spot, so he appears to be settling into that lineup placement. During that span, Frelick is batting a scorching .355 with two doubles, seven RBI, seven runs scored and two stolen bases across 31 at-bats.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2024

2023

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.

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.
