2023 Fantasy Outlook
Frazier hit a modest .238 last season, marking the second time in three years that he's finished the year below .240. That's an issue for a player who's averaged just eight homers and eight steals per 600 plate appearances over the course of his career. When the hits fall as they did in 2021, when a .339 BABIP helped him to a .305 average, he contributes enough in that category to have broader fantasy appeal, but when his BABIP drops to .268 like it did last season, he doesn't do much outside of deeper formats. Expecting much more than last year's career-high 11 steals in his age-31 season seems unwise, as does expecting him to suddenly hit for even passable power. His 1.5% barrel rate and 23.8% hard hit rate both sat in the second percentile. Between his contact and defensive versatility, Frazier still has enough to offer MLB clubs, but he does so little else that it's no surprise the Orioles will be his fourth team in the last three years.

Heads to Baltimore
The Orioles signed Frazier to a one-year, $8 million contract Thursday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Frazier's poor contract year with the Mariners, in which he posted a career-worst .612 OPS in 156 games, results in a modest free-agent deal. The 31-year-old figures to get regular playing time in Baltimore and plenty of opportunities to return to his 2021 form. In that season he slashed .305/.368/.411 with the Pirates and Padres. Frazier also provides a bit of value on the bases, as he's stolen 21 bases over the last two seasons.

Stat Review
How does Adam Frazier compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Through July 25, Frazier posted a .324/.388/.448, prompting the Pirates to deal him to the Padres where his versatility would fortify a roster with playoff intentions. Frazier slashed .267/.327/.335 after the trade, but still finished with a career high average and on-base mark. Frazier's calling card is contact has he fanned only 10.8% of the time, a career low. Frazier needs to put the ball in play as often as possible since he generates some of the weakest contact in the league with a 2nd percentile average exit velocity and 3rd percentile hard-hit rate. The Padres dealt Frazier to Seattle which does no favors for his limited power but could aid steals. He's more likely to match his career high 10 swipes set last season than his personal best 10 homers in 2018 and 2019. Frazier's allure is a solid batting average floor. Note he begins the 2022 only eligible at second base but could pick up outfield.
