Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Thursday that the team plans to give Frelick another look at third base next season, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Frelick played third base often during spring training but moved back to the outfield when Garrett Mitchell fractured his hand shortly before Opening Day and played just four innings at third during the season. However, the club was pleased with how Frelick looked at the hot corner and like the option of using him there, even if it might not be on a regular basis.

Frelick (hip) is on the Brewers' roster for the National League Wild Card Series versus the Mets, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Frelick suffered a bone bruise in his left hip during the final weekend of the regular season, but he went through a workout Monday and convinced the Brewers he was healthy enough to be included on their wild-card roster. He is expected to be in Tuesday's lineup for Game 1.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Monday that Frelick's (hip) status for the wild-card series remains uncertain, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports. Frelick was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left hip Saturday, but he is still noticeably gimpy and will undergo more testing Monday. If Frelick is ultimately not ready for the wild-card series which begins Tuesday, Blake Perkins should see an increase in responsibility.

Frelick was removed from Friday's game against the Mets with an apparent leg injury, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Frelick went down after crashing hard into the wall in right field while attempting to catch a foul ball in the third inning. He was able to slowly limp off the field under his own power but then needed assistance from the Brewers' training staff getting down the dugout steps and into the clubhouse. An update on his status will likely come in the near future, though it's possible the Brewers sit the 24-year-old down for the final two games of the season with a playoff berth already secured.
