Fraley was scratched from Wednesday's Cactus League lineup against the Brewers due to a stomach illness.
EDGE Analysis
Fraley went 3-for-5 with a run, an RBI, a stolen base and a walk across his first two spring appearances of the year, but he'll be a late scratch Wednesday. However, it's unlikely that the issue will impact his availability for Opening Day. TJ Friedl will take over in left field and bat third.

Fraley, Justin Dunn and Brandon Williamson were sent from Seattle to Cincinnati on Monday in exchange for Jesse Winker and Eugenio Suarez, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fraley was already looking at a bench role in Seattle, and he would have been pushed further down the depth chart by Winker's arrival. He's now heading to a much more hitter-friendly park and should have far less competition for at-bats. While his career track record doesn't make him a lock for a starting rule, he's coming off a promising age-26 season in which his .210/.352/.369 slash line was good for a 109 wRC+. He hit nine homers and stole 10 bases in 265 trips to the plate and also demonstrated a great eye, walking 17.4 percent of the time.

Fraley went 1-for-4 with a double, three RBI, three strikeouts and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-1 triumph over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Fraley was largely unsuccessful Sunday but came through when it counted with a bases-clearing double in the eighth inning to extend Seattle's one-run lead to a four-run margin. He went on to steal third base for his 10th swipe of the season. The 26-year-old has received regular playing time since returning from injury earlier this month, though Fraley hasn't produced with a subpar .148/.294/.222 line in 11 games.
