• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Faring well this spring

  Rotowire Mar 1, 2026

  Frelick is 3-for-10 (.300) with a triple, a steal and a 3:0 BB:K through four games this spring. Frelick has not been particularly busy early in the exhibition season, but he also has not been limited after playing through a sore knee in 2025. He is set to remain Milwaukee's primary right fielder, and he figures to be a fantasy factor after putting up a .288 batting average, 12 home runs and 19 steals over 590 regular-season plate appearances a season ago.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Remaining out of lineup

  Rotowire Aug 4, 2025

  Frelick (knee) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta. Frelick will take a seat for the second day in a row, after he was removed from Saturday's 8-2 win over the Nationals as a precaution when he experienced soreness in his surgically repaired left knee. According to MLB.com, the Brewers are looking into long-term solutions for Frelick to treat his knee, but he's expected to avoid a stint on the injured list and move past the issue after a few days of rest. Brandon Lockridge will draw another start in right field Monday in place of Frelick.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Comes off IL

  Rotowire Jul 26, 2025

  The Brewers activated Frelick (hamstring) off the 10-day injured list Saturday. Frelick suffered a Grade 1 left hamstring strain in the Brewers' final game before the All-Star break, so he'll end up missing only seven games due to the extra time off. Blake Perkins has been a near-everyday part of the Brewers' lineup while Frelick has been out, but the former will likely see a reduction in playing time now that the team's starting outfield is healthy. Tyler Black was optioned to the minors Saturday to make room for Frelick on the 26-man roster.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Expects to return Friday

  Rotowire Jul 22, 2025

  Frelick (hamstring) expects to be back in the Brewers' lineup Friday, but he has some tests to pass first, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Frelick suffered a left hamstring strain in Milwaukee's final contest before the All-Star break, ultimately being placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to July 15. The outfielder is eligible to return to action Friday at home versus the Marlins, and he appears confident that he will do so. Frelick will participate in batting practice prior to Tuesday's contest versus the Mariners, which will provide more clarity on his timeline to return.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Placed on injured list

  Rotowire Jul 18, 2025

  The Brewers placed Frelick (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Tuesday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Frelick strained his hamstring while making a sliding catch during the final game before the All-Star break. After waiting to see how he felt coming out of the break, the Brewers will now place the 25-year-old on the shelf, keeping him out for at least another week. Blake Perkins was recalled from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move and will likely take over as Milwaukee's primary right fielder until Frelick can return.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Exits early with injury

  Rotowire Jul 13, 2025

  Frelick was removed in the top of the third inning of Sunday's game against the Nationals due to an apparent injury, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. He went 1-for-2 with an RBI and a stolen base prior to departing. Frelick made a sliding catch in foul territory for the first out of the third inning on a Alex Call flyball near the right-field warning track, but he was in discomfort when he tried to get up after the play. He ultimately required assistance off the field from a team trainer and was replaced in the outfield by Isaac Collins. The Brewers should have more information on the nature of Frelick's injury later Sunday, but the 25-year-old's availability for the start of Milwaukee's second-half schedule is now in question.

• Brewers' Sal Frelick: Swipes 13th bag

  Rotowire Jun 14, 2025

  Frelick went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 3-2 win over the Cardinals. The 25-year-old sparked the Milwaukee offense from the leadoff spot for a second straight game, with a struggling Brice Turang (.188/.290/.237 over his last 22 games) bumped down to the seventh spot in the order. Frelick, by contrast, has been locked in since mid-May, slashing .344/.384/.441 over his last 25 contests with two of his four homers and five of his 13 steals on the season. As long as he keeps delivering at the plate, Frelick figures to remain at the top of the lineup against right-handed pitching.
