Frazier Potential Extension

[hi8is]

According to Heyman’s report, Frazier and his representatives at CAA “made many proposals” to the Reds, one of which looked something like the seven-year, $100MM pact between the Mariners and Kyle Seager.

I'd take that deal in a heartbeat.

What will Todd Frazier be at age 37?

[southsider2k5]

I don't have as much of a problem with the dollars, as I do the years.

[Black_Jack29]

I wouldn't give Frazier anything more than a five-year deal. And he'd probably be a 1B or DH in the last year or so of that contract.

I'd be fine with 3-4 years. 5 at max. It's so awesome to have a guy who can lock down 3rd base for us.

Better than any third baseman the White Sox have had since 2006.

That is a pretty gutsy call.

Avi's reaction in your avatar to Albers just shows that he's really a p****.

4 years 70 million with a vesting option at say 500 PA for a 5th at another 15-20 million. Would def not go over 5 years any which way you slice it. He won't be a 3B more than another few.

[hi8is]

7 / 100 = ~14 million a year

 

I'm sure he'll be worth more than 1.5 WAR per year.

Keep him for 4 years and then trade him.

[Buehrle>Wood]

5/80 please

[Bigsoxhurt35]

We'll see how ToddFather finishes this season but I could see them locking him up sometime during the end of the season.

Probably not 2009 Beckham, 2012 Youkilis, or 2014 Gillespie.

Every year until he's 39? Why?

So I looked up Frazier to see what he was making this year... I noticed the top comp for Frazier through Age 29 was...

 

Joe Crede.

Eek. Didn't realize he was that old. My bad.

[flavum]

If they locked him up through age 36, that would be good. I don't think he's anything like Dunn or LaRoche, and he's going to age ok.

[southsider2k5]

A seven year deal starting next year would run from his age 31 to 37 seasons.

[bmags]

It would be great if we could get him at Alex Gordon's contract.
