Reds' Frazier back in lineup Thursday against Cubs

Caylor Arnold-USA TODAY Sports

Cincinnati Reds third baseman Todd Frazier (Achilles) is back in the lineup hitting fifth Thursday against the Chicago Cubs.

Analysis:

After a torrid first half (.922 OPS), Frazier has really cooled off in the second half, posting a .677 OPS in 260 at-bats. Some of that is bad luck (.254 BABIP), but some of it is regression to the mean. That said, he will still likely be a top-25 pick in many leagues next year.
