Fry went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Fry socked his fifth homer of the season, and he's begun to show a power stroke despite a lack of average in the month of July. Over his last 43 at-bats, the 29-year-old is batting only .209 but has four long balls, one double and 10 RBI. It's fair to wonder if the Guardians will try to get Fry in the lineup more frequently -- the righty-hitting infielder has a .530 OPS versus left-handed pitching despite seeing most of his action against southpaws.

Fry went 2-for-5 with a double and four RBI in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Fry delivered a career-best four RBI, doing all of his damage against Jeffrey Springs. The 29-year-old drove in a run with a first-inning single before breaking the game open with a bases-clearing double in the fourth. Fry now has six RBI over his last two games, surpassing the total (five) he posted across his first 31 appearances this season. Even with this recent surge, Fry is still batting a lackluster 13-for-76 (.171) with a .587 OPS this season.

Fry went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Friday's 8-6 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Fry hit his fourth home run of the season Friday, a two-run shot as part of a four-run third inning. It's a good sign for the 29-year-old, who has really struggled at the plate to start his year following an All-Star campaign last season. He had an .804 OPS, 14 home runs and 51 RBI in 122 games last year but owns just a .559 OPS, four home runs and seven RBI in 32 games this season.

Fry went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-5 win over the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Fry provided insurance with a solo blast in the ninth inning, paving the way for Cleveland to snap a 10-game losing streak. He continues to be the designated hitter against left-handers, but Fry doesn't have a lock on that role. Since being reinstated from the 60-day injured list, he's batting .153 (9-for-59) with three home runs and five RBI over 26 games.

Fry went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Fry cranked his second homer of the season and logged only his second multi-hit game through his first 21 outings. The righty-hitting 29-year-old has served strictly as a designated hitter after missing the start of the season due to offseason elbow surgery, and he's mostly struggled in a weak-side platoon role. Fry is slashing .163/.226/.306 with the aforementioned two long balls, one double, four RBI and one stolen base over 53 plate appearances.

Fry went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Fry snapped a hitless run of 13 at-bats with a fourth-inning double and scored on a Carlos Santana single to knot the game at 2-2. Fry has become the go-to DH against left-handers, and since being activated off the 60-day injured list May 31, he's batting .160/.276/.320 over 12 games.

Fry is limited to designated-hitter duties while he continues a throwing program and progression, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fry was recently activated from the 60-day injured list where he spent first two months of the regular season rehabbing from an elbow procedure he underwent last November. He's started three of the last four games and will serve as the primary DH against lefties. Fry will also get occasional starts against righties.

The Guardians reinstated Fry (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Fry has spent the first portion of the season working his way back from an elbow procedure he underwent in November. He began playing in minor-league games May 13 and went 3-for-29 with a homer, five RBI and two runs scored during his nine-game rehab assignment. Despite his underwhelming performance, the Guardians feel he's ready to rejoin the active roster. Cody Bolton was designated for assignment to create room for Fry on the 40-man roster.

Fry (elbow) will continue his rehab assignment at Triple-A Columbus, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fry has appeared in six games during his current rehab stint, three in the Arizona Complex League and three at Double-A Akron. Despite hitting a combined 1-for-17 in those games, Fry's rehab will advance to Triple-A Columbus. Last season, Fry appeared in over 15 games at designated hitter, catcher, first base and left field while also picking up a few starts at third base and right field.
