Re: 8/15/2012 Mets at Reds
Frazier was hitting even when he was in the platoon earlier in the year. I think it's safe to assume he'll be OK. And it's not like Rolen will be able to play everyday anyhow. They'll find days off for him and Votto and Ludwick as well. Frazier will manage to play two of every three games in some fashion or another.

Re: 8/15/2012 Mets at Reds
It's a nice problem to have--the 3rd base situation. Wish we had the same problem in centerfield.
