  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Legs out triple in loss

    Friedl went 2-for-4 with a triple in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Pirates.

    Friedl gave the Reds their best chance at scoring when he took advantage of a carom off the right-field wall and turned a sure double into a triple. Unfortunately for Cincinnati, he was stranded there, as Pittsburgh lefty Bailey Falter induced a groundout, strikeout and pop out to escape. Since returning from a two-game absence due to a wrist injury, Friedl is 6-for-18 with three extra-base hits, three walks, an RBI and three runs scored.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Back in action

    Friedl went 0-for-3 with a walk in Friday's 5-4 win over the Guardians.

    Friedl returned to the lineup after missing two games with a wrist injury. He was back in the center field and at his usual leadoff spot.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Returns to Cincinnati lineup

    Friedl (wrist) will start in center field and bat leadoff in Friday's game versus the Guardians.

    Friedl missed each of the previous two contests with a bone bruise in his right wrist, but he appeared as a pinch runner during that span and feels well enough to give it a go at the plate and in the field. The 29-year-old is slashing .270/.429/.432 with an 11:10 K:BB so far in May.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Eyeing return to lineup Friday

    Friedl (wrist) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

    Friedl is tending to a bone bruise in his right wrist, an injury he suffered in Tuesday's 5-1 loss. The Reds held him out of the lineup for Wednesday's 4-2 loss, though manager Terry Francona told Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News that Friedl was available off the bench to pinch run or play defense. Friedl will remain limited to a bench role for the second day in a row because the wrist issue is still making it difficult for him to hit comfortably, but Francona expressed hope that the 29-year-old would be back in action for Friday's series opener versus the Guardians. Will Benson will cover center field in Frield's place Thursday.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Out with wrist bone bruise

    Friedl is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the White Sox and has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right wrist, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

    Friedl suffered the injury Tuesday against the White Sox when he fell hard on the wrist following a collision with teammate Elly De La Cruz. He will test out how the wrist feels with a bat in his hands pregame, although it's not clear whether he will do any hitting. For now, Friedl is considered day-to-day. Will Benson is in center field and batting seventh for the Reds on Wednesday.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Fighting wrist soreness

    Friedl exited Tuesday's game against the White Sox early due to right wrist soreness, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

    Friedl's wrist hit the ground hard after he collided with Elly De La Cruz in the outfield during the fourth inning, leading to Friedl's eventual removal in the fifth. X-rays on his wrist came back negative after the game, so he doesn't seem to be dealing with anything too serious. However, the Reds may elect to sit him down for a day or two, especially since the 29-year-old had also been hit in the left forearm by a pitch earlier in the game.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Exits early Tuesday

    Friedl was removed from Tuesday's game against the White Sox due to an apparent injury, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

    Friedl was hit by a pitch in the third inning of Tuesday's contest before colliding with Elly De La Cruz while chasing down a flyball in the fourth. He remained in the game following the collision but was replaced in the field to begin the fifth. It's possible his removal was simply a precaution to prevent his body from taking any more punishment, but the Reds should provide more details in the near future.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Third career multi-homer game

    Friedl went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs and a walk in Wednesday's win over Atlanta.

    It was the third career multi-homer effort by Friedl, who also snapped a 26-game homerless drought in the process. The outfielder has reached base safely in five of his six outings in May, during which he's batting a healthy .261 with three stolen bases, five runs scored and four walks over 23 at-bats. The lefty-hitting Friedl's struggles versus southpaws should continue to inhibit his overall fantasy volume and upside -- he has a .578 OPS against left-handed pitching -- but he does sport a .784 OPS against righties this season.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Reaches three times in loss

    Friedl went 1-for-3 with two walks and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to Atlanta.

    Friedl worked multiple walks for just the second time this season. He also swiped his third bag in his last five games, bringing him up to eight for the season. Friedl had only nine steals in 85 games last year after totaling 27 the year before. He's currently on pace to set a new career high in that category.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Getting day off versus lefty

    Friedl is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    The lefty-hitting Friedl will receive a breather Sunday while the Nationals send lefty MacKenzie Gore to the bump for the series finale. Blake Dunn will fill in for Friedl in center field.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Runs hit streak to six games

    Friedl went 2-for-5 with a double, a stolen base and an RBI in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to Miami.

    Friedl has hit safely in six consecutive games, going 12-for-27 with two doubles, a triple, two steals and five RBI during that span. He's up to four stolen bases (twice caught) over 22 games this season. Healthy again following an injury-marred 2024, Friedl is a threat to steal 20 bags over a full campaign.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Perfect at the plate in loss

    Friedl went 4-for-4 with a double, a walk, two RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 9-5 loss to the Orioles.

    Friedl was a thorn in the Orioles' side all game and has now tallied multiple hits in three straight contests. The 29-year-old continues to hit atop the Reds' lineup and owns a .307/.361/.387 slash with one home run, nine RBI, 11 runs scored and three steals across 84 plate appearances this season.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Sitting versus southpaw

    Friedl is not in the Reds' starting lineup against the Orioles on Friday.

    It's the first time since March 30 that Friedl will get a day off, with Blake Dunn getting the start in center field and batting ninth against Orioles southpaw Cade Povich in his place. Friedl has reached base safely in each of his last seven games, and over that span he has gone 8-for-27 with two walks, one stolen base, five runs scored and three RBI.

  • Reds' TJ Friedl: Scores twice in win

    Friedl went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 4-0 win over Pittsburgh.

    Friedl laced a double in the third inning and came in to score on a two-run single. He later reached on a forceout and scored a second run. He's hit safely and scored at least a run in four consecutive games. Not surprisingly, Cincinnati's leadoff hitter tops the club with 11 runs.
