LUIS FRÍAS NEWS

Hits open market Frias became a free agent Monday after clearing waivers.

Impact Frias failed to draw any interest while on the waiver wire, so he'll set his sights on finding a new club. He failed to settle in at the big-league level in 2024, accruing a 13.97 ERA and 2.69 WHIP with 12 strikeouts across 9.2 innings between stops in Arizona and Toronto.
