Former Cedar Rapids Prairie standout Scott Schebler was traded from the Los Angeles Dodgers to the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday as part of a three-team deal also involving the Chicago White Sox.
Todd Frazier, an All-Star third baseman is Cincinnati, is going to Chicago, as the Reds sent Frazier to Chicago in a three-team deal that brought three prospects — Schebler, an outfielder, infielder Jose Peraza, and outfielder/infielder Brandon Dixon — from the Dodgers to the Reds.
Schebler, 25, spent most of the 2015 campaign at Triple-A Oklahoma City before being a September call-up for the Dodgers.
He batted .242/.324/.515 with three home runs and two steals in 18 September games last season. Given his major league experience and the Reds' rebuilding roster, Schebler figures to have a chance at making the Opening Day roster as a corner outfielder in 2016.
