Harrah rejects trade as Frazier seeks big raise in Indians move
Veterans’ tug of war unfolds as the Indians consider trading Harrah to gain Frazier's contract demands. Frazier seeks 425000 after earning 125000 last year, while the Yankees offer 325000. Harrah veto power delayed the deal, then he accepted a reworked contract after agreeing to move to New York. Harrah’s five-season Indians tenure included 70 homers, 324 RBI, and 82 steals despite a broken hand last season. Nixon, a Columbus standout with 129 runs and 94 steals, is viewed as a starting outfield contender for the Yankees.
