Fraley (wrist) is not in the starting lineup Friday versus the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley will remain on the bench for a third straight game Friday versus left-hander Jordan Montgomery. It's unclear whether he's available off the bench or not as a potential pinch hitter with his wrist injury, but Jonathan India will draw the start at designated hitter and bat third against St. Louis.

Fraley (wrist) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

It's the second straight game he's sat out with a bruised right wrist, although Fraley almost surely wouldn't be starting against southpaw Clayton Kershaw, anyway. The Reds are slated to face another lefty Friday in the Cardinals' Jordan Montgomery, so we might not see Fraley back in the lineup until Saturday.

Fraley was scratched from the lineup Wednesday versus the Dodgers due to a right wrist contusion, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley got hit by a pitch in the wrist during Tuesday night's 9-8 win over Los Angeles, though he did play the entire game and can safely be considered day-to-day. Will Benson is now in right field and batting leadoff for the Reds on Wednesday. T.J. Hopkins will play left field and hit ninth.

Fraley went 2-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley returned and led off Tuesday after he was scratched from the lineup Monday due to allergies. The 28-year-old notched base hits in the first and sixth innings and was awarded an RBI after being hit by a pitch with the bases loaded in the ninth. Tuesday marked the first time Fraley's been slotted into the leadoff spot this season, as he's primarily hit third or fourth against righties. With TJ Friedl (hamstring) still making his way back from injury, Fraley seems destined to be the Reds' leadoff man against righties for the time being. He's notched six hits and three RBI over his last four games and is now slashing .262/.350/.430 with seven homers, 38 RBI, 22 runs and a 22:35 BB:K over 197 plate appearances.

Fraley (illness) is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley will cover right field and bat leadoff after missing Monday's series finale versus the Brewers due to a flareup of allergies. He's primarily hit cleanup for the Reds over the last few weeks, but Elly De La Cruz is up and occupying that spot in the lineup Tuesday.

Fraley (illness/allergies) was scratched from the lineup Monday versus the Brewers, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley is dealing with some significant allergies Monday and was forced out of the lineup for the series finale with Milwaukee. Stuart Fairchild will replace him in the lineup, starting in center field and batting eighth versus the Brewers.

Fraley went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-1 loss to Milwaukee.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley's seventh-inning homer off Adrian Houser accounted for all of Cincinnatti's offense in the loss. Fraley has homered in back-to-back games. He's gone 5-for-12 with four steals in his last three games following a 3-for-28 stretch (.138) over his previous eight contests. The 28-year-old Fraley is now slashing .257/.346/.431 with seven homers, 37 RBI and 11 stolen bases through 191 plate appearances this season.

Fraley went 3-for-4 with a walk, a solo home run, an additional run scored and three steals in Saturday's loss to the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

For the second time this season, Fraley hit a home run and stole at least one base. He's slashing .258/.348/.417 with six home runs, 36 RBI, 19 runs scored and 11 stolen bases across 52 games (187 plate appearances). Fraley continues to get periodic days off versus left-handed starters, but he is consistently in the lineup against right-handers and hits in the middle of Cincinnati's lineup, giving him plenty of opportunities with runners in scoring position.

Fraley is out of the lineup again Thursday versus the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Fraley was on the bench Wednesday versus left-hander James Paxton and he'll grab some more pine Thursday with the Red Sox throwing another lefty in Chris Sale. Nick Senzel, Jose Barrero and Stuart Fairchild are starting across the outfield for the visiting Reds. Tyler Stephenson is taking a DH day while Curt Casali catches.

Fraley is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty-hitting Fraley will duck out of the starting nine with a southpaw (James Paxton) on the hill for Boston. With Fraley on the bench, Tyler Stephenson will get a day off behind the plate to serve as the Reds' designated hitter while Luke Maile handles catching duties.
