With Todd Frazier trade, bold White Sox go NL slugger route again

CHICAGO -- This one should sound familiar: The Chicago White Sox have acquired a veteran power hitter who has done his life’s work in the National League.

Todd Frazier was obtained via trade from the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday in a three-team deal that also included the Los Angeles Dodgers, giving the White Sox a third-base power presence they haven’t had since the days of Joe Crede.

The White Sox feel they have filled a hole that has plagued them since 2008 and only seems to have gotten worse in recent seasons.
