Braves Release Jason Frasor

By Jeff Todd | August 27, 2015 at 2:12pm CDT

The Braves have released righty Jason Frasor, as reflected on the MLB.com transactions page and as David O’Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution confirms (on Twitter). Frasor was signed by Atlanta in mid-July after being released by the Royals.

Though he just turned 38, Frasor had no trouble keeping runs off the board this season. All said, he made it through 28 frames while allowing just four earned runs on 27 hits. But he walked 18 batters to go with his 22 strikeouts, which was likely the reason he was sent packing by a contending Kansas City organization.

Frasor has been on the disabled list with a strained right shoulder since early August. It’s not clear whether he’ll attempt to hook on with another team now or wait until the coming offseason to ramp back up.

    Always liked Frasor. He’s had quite a career for a guy who’s never been a closer or even really a set up man for that matter. How many middle relievers last as long as he has?

      Jason Frasor has 36 career saves — he was Toronto’s primary closer way back in 2004 and led the team again in 2009. He was never a lights-out 30-saves guy of course.

    Frasor was a heck of a good return for the Blue Jays when they had to dump Jayson Werth. Pulled one heck of a good arm from the Dodgers A+ club.
