Sources: Padres acquire 2B Frazier from Pirates

The San Diego Padres are acquiring second baseman Adam Frazier from the Pittsburgh Pirates, sources tell ESPN.

Frazier, 29, who leads baseball in hits this year, is not a free agent until after the 2022 season.

Frazier entered Sunday hitting .327 — the second-best average in Major League Baseball — with four home runs and 32 RBI.

Frazier, a 2020 Gold Glove finalist and All-Star this season, was the Pirates’ second-longest tenured player behind right fielder Gregory Polanco.

When asked about possibly being traded a week ago, Frazier said he wasn’t letting it distract him.

“It’s pretty cool to be recognized like that and have teams want you,” Frazier said. “It means a lot. It tells you you’re playing well, but I still have to worry about playing baseball.”
