Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier is still only 24 and has only appeared in a total of 91 major league games across parts of three seasons. Therefore, his recent defensive deficiencies should be taken with a grain of salt, especially when you consider his ever-expanding proficiency at the plate.
Yes, Frazier dropped a fly ball in Sunday’s 8-7 loss to the Royals — and was replaced by Cameron Maybin in the sixth inning of Monday’s 5-2 win over the Padres.
However, over his past seven games, Frazier is red-hot, slashing .385/.448/.923 with four home runs and 10 RBIs.
