Fry went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Fry is turning things around at the plate -- he's gone just 5-for-24 over his last seven games, but three of those hits have been homers. The 28-year-old's blast Friday cut the deficit to two runs, but the Guardians couldn't keep their rally going. Fry is up to 12 homers, 42 RBI, 38 runs scored, four stolen bases and a .268/.367/.449 slash line through 95 contests this season.

Fry is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Fry had started each of the last five games, going 3-for-17 with a home run. While he's in the midst of a lull at the plate to begin August, Fry will hit the bench Wednesday to make room for a hotter bat in Jhonkensy Noel, who will draw a third consecutive start after slugging three home runs between the first two contests versus the Cubs.

Fry went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Fry is just 5-for-32 over nine contests in August, but three of those hits have been homers. The 28-year-old's power had dipped dramatically over the previous two months, as he didn't hit a homer and added just nine doubles among 30 hits over 43 contests in June and July. For the year, he's at a .271/.373/.447 slash line, 11 homers, 40 RBI, 37 runs scored, 14 doubles and four stolen bases over 92 games.

Fry is out of the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Fry has gone 3-for-21 with two homers through his first six games in August and will take a seat for the matinee of Friday's twin bill. Jose Ramirez is resting his legs as the designated hitter while Daniel Schneemann shifts to third base and Brayan Rocchio starts at shortstop.

Fry went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 5-3 loss to the Diamondbacks in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader.
EDGE Analysis
Fry didn't play in the first game, but he started at first base in the second contest. The homer was his second over six games in August after he had just one extra-base hit, a double, in all of July. The 28-year-old has cooled off dramatically since his hot start to the year, but he still has a .275/.375/.447 slash line with 10 homers, 39 RBI, 36 runs scored, four stolen bases and 14 doubles over 89 contests. Fry hasn't been strictly platooned, but he's not an everyday option versus right-handed pitchers.

Fry is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
The Guardians are giving Jose Ramirez some time off third base in the first game of the day and deploying him at designated hitter, so Fry will be the odd man out of the Cleveland lineup. Expect Fry to return to the starting nine for the nightcap and take on a prominent spot in the batting order while the Guardians oppose lefty Eduardo Rodriguez.

Fry went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run Thursday in a 10-3 win against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Fry contributed to an impressive display by Cleveland's offense with a three-run blast in the third inning. The long ball put an end to a 43-game homerless stretch for the first-time All-Star. Of Fry's nine home runs this season, seven game during an 18-game span from May 8 to May 31.

Fry is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Fry will get some rest for the series finale after he started at either designated hitter or first base in each of Cleveland's last five games while going 4-for-15 with two walks, one RBI and one run. Jose Ramirez will get a day off from playing third base and will serve as the Guardians' DH while Fry hits the bench.

Fry is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Fry will get a break Wednesday after he started at designated hitter and catcher in the first two games versus Detroit, going 3-for-9 with a run. Jhonkensy Noel will get the nod at DH while Bo Naylor checks back in behind the plate.
