Quite the contrary, I did write this about Fraizer earlier this season--
I'm not sure how much better he can get though. I don't think there's much untapped power. Plate discipline is about where'd you'd want from a guy like him. He can already move around the diamond and can put bat on ball pretty well. Best thing I could see him improving at would be refining his base-running and maybe adding a step or two by working with a speed and quickness guru, and I don't think that would spike his value.
Don't mistake my want to cash in on him for wanting to move him for any old offer. If the teams that are asking on him are looking for a guy they can get cheap because he doesn't have the sexy numbers, you don't move him. But if there are legit offers on the table that can net you a pair of players above A-ball with substantially higher ceilings or someone offers a similarly cost controller starter and sweeteners, I'm certainly going to push for that.
I think his ceiling is probably a 3 WAR player and if someone wants to pay a 3 WAR player price, I pull the trigger.
Fair enough! I remember someone wasn't a Frazier belieber whereas I was/am an AF fanboy. I think getting an OBP well north of .350 should be his goal.
Honestly AF might even be an extension candidate. Doubt it'd cost big money, he wasn't a big bonus guy. That maybe puts Tucker in play for pitching. If Cherington could get 5 yrs/$30M or something it'd be tempting.
