I shudder to think about the hit to an already-depleted farm system in order to get a 28-year old, 3-ish WAR pitcher making $7 mil this year, $8.85 mil next year with two team options thereafter (even if he is scuffling currently).
He has decent, but not otherwordly, stats in a small 4-game sample size at Fenway: 26.2 IP / 3.71 ERA / 1.13 WHIP / 1.44 SO:BB
I would think Frazier would be significantly cheaper. He is a 31-year old, low OBP slugger signed for $12 mil this year. In 28 PA at Fenway, he has 2 HR and a .843 OPS. His glove would be a modest upgrade at the hot corner.
