Make your predictions: Jason Frasor

by Tom Dakers on Jan 30, 2010 10:00 AM EST in Fun

Predicting what the relievers will do isn't as much fun as trying to figure out what the starters will do but still here we are. Last year, at 31, Frasor had the best season of his career. He started the season as a set up man and vultured a bunch of wins. He was 4-0 by May 2nd. When Scott Downs went down Frasor became the closer. He had 8 saves in the last couple of months of the season.

Anyway Jason's season:

	W-L	G	GS	CG	SHO	SV	BS	IP	H	R	ER	HR	BB	K	ERA	WHIP
2009 - Jason Frasor	7-3	60	0	0	0	11	3	57.2	43	17	16	4	16	56	2.50	1.02

Bill James predicts a 4-3, 3.41, 58 games, 1 SV season.

CHONE has him 3-2, 3.53, 51 games and doesn't guess at saves.

So give us your guess at what Frasor will do, give us games, ERA, saves and what every else fits.

hmmm, if he has a season like last year again in 2010, I am not sure that it would not be wiser to sign him - a proven Jay in the hand is worth two potentials in the system

MLBastian twitter says that Frasor and Downs are available for trade

@jaysonst reports that Jays have told teams that Downs & Frasor are available. Makes sense since both are FAs after the 2010 season.

Type A Free Agent

If they are going to trade him then they would need to get the equivilent of a first rounder and a sandwich pick, if not more.

I think he has a good year and gets traded at the deadline. Same with Downs

predicting relief pitchers' performance is almost impossible

who could have predicted Frasor’s year last year? That said, I expect a strong season. Frasor was always a good relief pitcher and the split-change he added to get lefties made him an excellent one.

The changeup gave me bigtime hope for him last year. He now has two plus pitches.

So I’m curious, everyone seems to be pegging Frasor as a kind of “if necessary” closer. Honestly of the group of relief pitchers they have now, I think Frasor would be the best choice for their everyday closer. Are they going to use Downs again?
