(New York) New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone is unsure if Clint Frazier will play baseball again, after the outfielder was pulled from a fitness game in the minors due to ‘a problem with his vision.
“We’ll see,” Boone replied when asked if Frazier will play again one day. He met a lot of specialists and carried out a lot of tests. We will continue to support it as best we can. There seems to be a pattern right now. He feels good today. We’ll see. ”
Frazier, 26, began a conditioning stint in the minors last Tuesday, after missing six weeks with lightheadedness and vertigo symptoms. He’s been 4-for-10 in three games, but Boone mentioned that Frazier didn’t feel good until Sunday’s game at AA level and he asked to be taken out of roster.
Frazier’s fitness trip officially ended on Monday and his name was moved to the long-term injured list.
Frazier has been on the sidelines since 1is July. He missed almost the entire 2018 season due to persistent concussion symptoms. It is not known if his current situation is related to the same problem.
