Travis Fryman was born March 25, 1969 in Lexington, Kentucky and is a former Major League Baseball third baseman and shortstop, and currently a hitting instructor for the Cleveland Indians farm system. He also managed the Mahoning Valley Scrappers from 2008 to 2010.
The Detroit Tigers drafted Fryman in the first round of the 1987 Major League Baseball Draft out of Tate High School in Pensacola, Florida. He debuted with the Tigers at Tiger Stadium on July 7, 1990 in a 4-0 loss to the Kansas City Royals at short, but ended up seeing more time at third over the course of his first season in the majors.
He split time between short and third in 1991 before an injury to Alan Trammell allowed him to inherit the starting shortstop job in 1992. He clubbed twenty home runs and drove in 96 to earn his first All-Star selection, and win the American League Silver Slugger Award at his position.
Fryman started the 1993 at short, but earned the third base job by the end of the season. He remained at third for Detroit until joining the expansion Arizona Diamondbacks via a trade following the 1997 season for Matt Drews. Two weeks after joining the Diamondbacks, he was traded again, along with pitcher, Tom Martin, to the Indians for third baseman Matt Williams.
Fryman batted .287 with 28 home runs and 96 RBIs his first season in Cleveland to help lead his team to the American League Central division crown. Fryman batted only .167 with no runs batted in and committed one error in the field in his first post-season as the Indians were ousted in the 1998 American League Championship Series by the New York Yankees.
Injuries hampered Fryman in 1999, however, he rebounded to have his best season in 2000. He established career highs in batting average (.321), slugging percentage (.516), on base percentage (.392), hits (184), doubles, and RBIs (106). Additionally, he also only made eight errors in the field and had a 60-game errorless streak, on his way to winning a Gold Glove Award. His teammates rewarded his efforts with the Gordon Cobbledick Golden Tomahawk Award, and the Cleveland Baseball Writers' Association named him their Man of the Year.
Injuries once again limited Fryman in 2001, as he didn't even make his first major league appearance until June 2. In 2002, he had the lowest range factor of all major league third basemen (2.31), as well as the lowest zone rating (.680).
In a 13-season career, Fryman posted a .274 batting average with 223 home runs and 1022 RBI in 1698 games. Fryman retired after the 2002 season due to injury.
