Friedl returns after missing time with a wrist injury. Fantasy managers should expect Friedl to serve as the everyday starting center fielder for the Reds.

The Reds sent TJ Friedl on a rehab assignment to Triple-A Louisville.

Fantasy Impact

It was reported last weekend that Friedl was ramping up baseball activities. He has been sidelined since fracturing his wrist during spring training.

TJ Friedl (wrist) is currently ramping up baseball activities at the Reds’ spring training complex.

Fantasy Impact

Friedl is expected to serve as a defensive player only in games at the Reds’ complex. The Reds expect him to be ready for a rehab assignment next week, barring any setbacks.

TJ Friedl (wrist) could begin a rehab assignment in 10-to-14 days, if he stays on track.

Fantasy Impact

Friedl is continuing to build up strength and is ramping up baseball activities. The 28-year-old will likely need multiple rehab games, as he has yet to take the field for the Reds this season.

TJ Friedl (wrist) will continue with light baseball activity for 7-to-10 days after undergoing an MRI.

Fantasy Impact

Friedl’s follow-up MRI determined that the outfielder will have to wait to be cleared to ramp up his rehab. Friedl is on the 60-day IL, so this news likely will not impact his timeline much.
