The New York Yankees made several roster moves on Friday, some surprising, some not. After a few years of up and down promise the Yankees designated Clint Frazier for assignment. Also hitting the assignment block was Rougned Odor, and surprisingly utility player Tyler Wade. All of these moves were made necessary to protect players from next month’s Rule 5 draft.
Any fan that’s been following Clint Frazier’s career is likely not surprised that the red haired outfielder and the Yankees are parting ways. He was always praised for his excellent bat speed, but never reached his potential behind the plate.
