Bullet dodged. I have fond memories of Frazier, but Suarez provides nearly the same level of production for league min.
I would have preferred we keep him, but Seager money is hardly taking a hometown discount, especially when hes considerably older.

Have you watched Suarez play? The guy can’t even catch a pop up. He has a good bat, but not nearly as good as Frazier and his defense is light years behind Frazier. Frazier was on his way to a Bench/Rose/Perez-type level of love in Cincinnati. At the very least he would have sold tickets for a club that is likely going to be losing more than winning for the next 5 years or so. That is worth 7/100 easily.

Frazier is a nice player but the reality is the Reds are going to remain a bad team for a few years, Todd had a terrible second half last year, he’s 30 years old and historically, his best production is behind him. Whether Dixon, Scheleber or Peraza amount to anything remains to be seen.

For little spent, the Dodgers wound up with value in Trayce Thompson, especially with the Ethier injury

Let’s see if Frazier earns a 5 year $70 million deal with the White Sox after this season.

After seeing how Davidson apparently reverted back to his former self once demoted, I would say if the Sox can tie up Frazier for the next few years then do it. As for declining production. Im not so sure, after all Beltre is still playing third and playing pretty well, so anything is possible, just do not break the bank for Frazier.

Beltre’s value was very little after his contract with Seattle ended. He signed a one year deal with Boston to prove he could still play—and he did. Texas signed him to a five year deal and he’s one of the few players who have lived up to their FA contracts in their 30’s. Obviously, Frazier has a couple years to prove he’s worth a big buck contract. We’ll see.
