TJ Friedl

TJ Friedl went 1-for-3 in the Reds' 3-0 loss to the Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

Despite managing to secure a hit, Friedl's performance did little to spark any offense for Cincinnati in a game where runs were sorely needed. This season, Friedl's batting average sits at a .226, and while he has shown some power with 13 homers, his overall production has been underwhelming. His .304 wOBA and .226 BABIP suggest that he's not been particularly unlucky, just not overly effective. Fantasy managers should view Friedl as a fringe option.

This performance marks a significant highlight in what has been a challenging season for Friedl, boosting his batting average and giving fantasy managers a glimpse of his potential upside. Despite a generally low average and BABIP this season, games like this demonstrate Friedl's ability to contribute across multiple categories. Owners should consider Friedl as a situational player who can offer sporadic bursts of productivity, particularly in deeper leagues or as a streaming option when facing favorable matchups.

Fantasy Impact

His performance included a crucial home run and he crossed the plate twice, contributing significantly to the team's win. Despite a generally underwhelming season with a batting average of just .221, Friedl's recent game could hint at a potential upswing. His power metrics, with 12 home runs in 73 games, suggest he can provide sporadic home run support, but his low batting average and BABIP indicate ongoing challenges in hitting consistently. Fantasy managers should view Friedl as a possible situational player, especially in deeper leagues or formats that reward power numbers.
