The Book on Adam Frazier

The Pirates called up Adam Frazier today, possibly for the long-term as the move was paired with Cole Figueroa being designated for assignment. There were a lot of talented infield prospects in Indianapolis, and Frazier becomes the first to make the jump to Pittsburgh, after posting a .333/.401/.425 line.

Frazier was our 27th ranked prospect coming into the season. He was 28th in the system heading into the 2014 season -- the year after he was drafted -- and 41st overall heading into the 2015 season after a down year in Bradenton. So while he's been on our prospect radar since day one, there might still be some Pirates fans who don't know the details about his game.
