Fraley started at designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Saturday's 9-4 win over St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
Fraley returned to the lineup after missing three games with a calf injury and was given a soft re-entry at DH. The Cardinals have right-hander Lance Lynn scheduled to throw Sunday, so the lefty-hitting Fraley should get another start.

Fraley (calf) is starting in right field and batting fourth Saturday against St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
Fraley missed three games after being scratched from Wednesday's lineup due to a bruised calf, but the issue has subsided ahead of Saturday's contest. The 29-year-old outfielder currently owns a career-best .277 batting average on the season; however, his .676 OPS represents his lowest mark since joining the Reds in 2022.

The Reds scratched Fraley from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates due to a right lower leg contusion.
EDGE Analysis
Per Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer, the injury likely stems from Fraley fouling a ball off the leg a few days ago. Levi Jordan was a late addition to the Cincinnati lineup and will start in left field while Fraley gets at least one day off to recover from the injury.
