Frazier showed the same improvements to start the 2016 season that I saw t end the 2015 season. The improvements to lay off chase pitches out of the zone. Opposing pitchers tried to work Frazier on the outside of the strike zone during a three game series, but he was able to go the other way on several fastballs, resulting in line drive doubles. Although he saw a steady diet of fastballs away, his only strikeouts were on sliders where he was out in front on. When he made contact, he showed a line-drive swing, and was able to spray the ball to all parts of the field. Defensively, Frazier played left and right field during the three games series and showed average ability on his routes to the balls. Overall, Frazier finished the three game set 5-for-13 with two extra base hits and three strikeouts. – Reggie Yinger
