Red Sox Sign Outfielder Matt Fraizer to Minor-League Deal

He is expected to begin at Triple-A Worcester as organizational depth.

Overview

  • The agreement was reported by MiLB Central’s Chase Ford, and Heavy noted Fraizer acknowledged the move on Instagram.
  • Fraizer, 27, was a 2019 third-round pick by the Pirates and spent six seasons in their system without a Major League debut.
  • In 62 games for Triple-A Indianapolis in 2025, he hit .305/.361/.452 with 22 extra-base hits and 14 steals in 16 attempts.
  • His production improved from his first Triple-A stint, lifting his OPS from .730 to .813 last season.
  • Boston’s crowded outfield limits immediate openings, so a call-up would likely hinge on injuries or roster changes.
