The White Sox were looking to add some pop while
solidifying third base, and they are counting on Todd Frazier to
provide it.
The All-Star third baseman was acquired from the Cincinnati Reds on
Wednesday as part of a three-team, seven-player trade that also
included the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Los Angeles received outfielder Trayce Thompson, right-hander
Frankie Montas and second baseman Micah Johnson from the White Sox,
and Cincinnati got infielders Brandon Dixon and Jose Peraza and
outfielder Scott Schebler from the Dodgers.
The 29-year-old Frazier, who won last summer's All-Star Home Run
Derby in Cincinnati, was an NL All-Star in each of the last two
seasons and hit .255 this year with 43 doubles, 35 homers and 89
RBIs.
