Clint Frazier is, like, really good. But he’s been rotting in the minors.
He’s had his fair share of demons, like poor defense and poor performances with the media.
But he’s damn good.
The New York Yankees acquired Frazier in 2016 in that Andrew Miller trade, and he automatically became one of the outfielders of the future, along with then-prospect Aaron Judge. The Yankees thought so highly of him, they put him with Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes Barre, even though he had been playing for Cleveland’s Double-A affiliate.
But he has played in just 123 major league games since 2017, half of them coming last season.
