Sal Frelick is a prominent piece in a deep Brewers outfield, but he’ll also spend some time on the dirt in spring training.
Ken Rosenthal published a column Saturday morning revealing that Frelick worked out with former Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia at the team’s spring training complex in November.
The workouts were arranged by new manager Pat Murphy, who asked Frelick to put in work as an infielder. While he’ll still serve primarily as an outfielder, he’ll also get time at second and third base in spring training.
Frelick was an infielder in high school but has only played outfield in college and as a professional.
