Hold on, Sox fans,
The Carmine Hose are
not looking into acquiring
The ToddFather. But
they are "kicking the tires" on a player with a similar
sounding last name—that is, relief pitcher
Jason Frasor. You might remember Frasor when he toiled for the Blue Jays and Rangers—but he was more recently
released by the Royals. Oddly, the 37-year-old's ERA (1.54) was pretty darn good working out of the mega-loaded KC bullpen. However, his strikeout and walk rates were both heading in the wrong direction—so he was shipped out by the reigning American League champs. Boston could use just about any warm (and experienced) body in the 'pen—to address what is a
major weakness of the 2015 team. Reportedly, the woeful Mariners are
also interested in Frasor. So, it could be a 'bottom-feeder' bidding war. Stay tuned!
