Todd Frazier left Tuesday's game with a “slight” strain of his right Achilles tendon.
This isn’t the best of news for the Cincinnati Reds but they are hopeful that it isn’t too bad. Either way, the Reds will most likely rest their All-Star third baseman for the rest of the season.

Frazier hurt himself while sliding to make an attempt on a foul ball against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. The 29-year-old will hopefully be healthy in time for the 2016 season as he tries to make his third straight All-Star team.
It isn’t good news for fantasy owners competing in their respective finals. Frazier has played in almost every game this season and even though he sports a .238 BA, he’s hit a career-high 35 HR and 88 RBI this season. It’s production that will be hard to be replaced.
The Reds will try to replace him with youngsters they brought up throughout the month of September when rosters expanded. It's a situation to avoid in fantasy.
