Jason Andrew Frasor (b. August 9, 1977, in Chicago, Illinois) is a right-handed relief pitcher in Major League Baseball who currently plays for the Toronto Blue Jays. He made his debut with the Blue Jays in by|2004, and he had a respectable 4.08 ERA in 63 games. A starter in the low minors from by|1999 to by|2002, he was converted to a reliever in 2003. The Blue Jays acquired him from the Los Angeles Dodgers prior to the 2004 season in exchange for Jayson Werth. He was sent to the minors on April 28, 2006, and recalled on May 11, 2006.

Frasor's four-seam fastball can reach 96 mph. He throws a straight four-seam curveball, starting at near-eye level, on a downward trajectory.

On July 2, 2006, Frasor was demoted again to AAA; the Blue Jays recalled Shaun Marcum in his place.

Frasor is one of the few Blue Jays without regular entrance music at the Rogers Centre. His entry into games is usually accompanied by contemporary nu metal music by bands such as Nickelback. (In 2007 he entered regularly to the Black Crowes.)

On January 9, 2007, Frasor signed a one-year contract for the 2007 season with the Toronto Blue Jays, avoiding salary arbitration. The contract is worth $825,000 with cumulative incentives based upon games pitched. [ [http://www.thestar.com/printArticle/169274 TheStar.com ] ]

Frasor is a cousin of UNC backup Point guard Bobby Frasor.
