Baker: Frazier will play on a part-time basis

[bigpapiMA32]

Dusty Baker has said that when Votto rejoins the club (probably tomorrow) Todd Frazier will no longer be in the lineup every day - Rolen will keep his starting job. What do you guys think about this? Rolen has been hitting fine, but Frazier has been mashing the ball lately, even reaching base in his last 25 games. I know they've got the division all but locked up, but I want to see good young hitters play every day!

Also, Harper has been hitting well lately and if he keeps it up might catch up to Frazier in ROY if he's only playing 2-3 times a week.

Figures Dusty would do something like this instead of finding a place for him to play and as far as the ROY talks i doubt that it's Frazier or Harper. It's got to be Wade Miley

Dusty is an idiot as a Manager. He has no rhyme nor reason most of the time. They should just trade away Frazier if he is going to be a PT player. :lol:

It's beyond dumb to take a player with Frazier's positional versatility and bench him when one of his positions gets filled. He can play all over the field and even played in the OF in the minors. I love Rolen's glove and the drop off isn't massive in the bat, but you've got to find a way to get that bat in the lineup even if it means getting creative.
