EDGE Analysis

The Cubs are sending a southpaw for a second straight game, so Frazier will retreat to the dugout while Jared Triolo starts at second base and bats eighth against Matthew Boyd. Frazier is in the midst of an 11-game hitting streak, going 12-for-33 (.364) with three stolen bases, five runs scored and two RBI over that span.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier extended his hitting streak to five games when he delivered a two-RBI double in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier replaced Nick Gonzales in the sixth inning of Thursday's win over Miami after the latter injured his left ankle. With Gonzales being placed on the 10-day IL on Friday, Frazier looks to have a hold on the keystone position for the time being and could remain in lineups against southpaws, whom he's batted .246 against in his career.

Frazier (back) will start at second base and bat fifth in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier hasn't played in more than a week while dealing with a back issue, but he's feeling up to giving it a go Friday. The veteran is slated to serve in a utility role with the Pirates this season.

Manager Derek Shelton said Wednesday that Frazier hasn't played in a spring game since Feb. 26 due to a back injury, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 33-year-old signed a one-year, $1.525 million contract with the Pirates in January but appeared in just three Grapefruit League games before the back injury surfaced. Frazier could return to game action before the end of the week, which would put him on track for the start of the regular season.

EDGE Analysis

Frazier will begin his second stint in Pittsburgh in 2025 after he signed a one-year, $1.525 million contract with the Pirates in January. He's projected to serve as a utility man for the Pirates, with his playing time likely to be contingent on the health of Pittsburgh's everyday players. During his time with the Royals last season, Frazier produced a career-low .576 OPS and struck out at a career-high 20.1 percent clip over 294 plate appearances.
