We shudder to think what
could have been. A trade deadline prospect dump for 3B
Todd Frazier—with
Rafael Devers consigned to AAA Pawtucket for the rest of 2017. Instead,
Dave Dombrowski's failure to get Frazier—and his subsequent landing in the Bronx—is the best
non-deal of
Double D's tenure on Yawkey Way. In 14 games with
The Evil Ones, Frazier is hitting .182 with one HR and four RBIs—down from his "robust" .207 average with
The Pale Hose. Frazier,
Aaron Judge and
Matt Holliday are in a collective hitting slump that has led to a slide out of first place by
The Pinstriped Posers. In fact, manager
Joe Girardi benched
all three "sluggers" in yesterday's 5-1 loss to the Tribe. Sweet.
