While the blockbuster deal between the Yankees and Chicago White Sox wasn’t officially announced until after midnight on the east coast Wednesday, Todd Frazier knew something was up hours beforehand.
During Chicago’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Guaranteed Rate Field on Tuesday night, the 31-year-old corner infielder, who was marked as a healthy scratch from the lineup, gave his goodbyes in the dugout. Initially, reports led most to believe that Frazier was packing his bags for Boston, but by the late evening, he and his teammates David Robertson and Tommy Kahnle learned that they’d soon be donning a new set of pinstriped uniforms.
