Jake Fraley Sitting Tuesday Versus Lefty
1 year agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Jake Fraley is not in the starting lineup Tuesday night as the Reds take on the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Joey Wentz. Only 40 of Fraley's 352 plate appearances have come against southpaws this season while he's hitting just .147 with three doubles and three stolen bases against lefties in that time. He's been extremely productive off right-handers, however, as the lefty-swinging outfielder is hitting .282 with 15 homers, 15 doubles, 17 stolen bases, and an .860 OPS across 312 trips to the plate versus opposite-handed pitching. Spencer Steer, Harrison Bader, and TJ Friedl will man the outfield Tuesday night in Detroit.
