 Before we hopped into the car there's a bunch of fans around the dugout calling your name you got like Probably ten different nicknames, and then there's Clint of course. What do you want to be called like? What do you like best? You know, I know everyone has embraced the the red Thunder thing and and that's awesome, but It's not that's not my favorite one I mean I I want something that describes me more. It's something a little more tough But I mean for the time being I mean I get called roho You know people called me wildling on the team for the the red-haired guy in Game of Thrones But I just want something that that is a little more Off-the-elementary sound and and I want something that fits me more something I I don't know you got any nicknames you have you heard anything like roho roho's good I think with how much I try to incorporate the color red into my my everyday outfit or what I'm wearing on the field is I want something to do with red in it. Yeah, you know So being from Georgia, what are some of the things that you grew up on that you kind of like bring with yourself? You know, I think family family-oriented things have been one of the the biggest things that you know It's kind of been concreted into my my everyday lifestyle my parents and I talk on the phone every day I talk to my sister, you know, I brought my cats with me. They feel like my own family away from home I don't know what it is, but you strike me more as a dog person than a cat person But you have two cats you can blame my mom for that man. She we have one dog at her house and I don't know how many cats she would be upset if I said the number but it's It's a large number of cats. So but but they're outside cats, you know, she she causes a cat motel, you know She what do you mean? They don't actually live at your house She she put off a part in the basement that she they built in kind of like It's just an indoor place for them to go and sleep at night But you know, we have a lot of acres at our house and and they run around a lot So they they just enjoy going outside and and they're wild man So and with how many she has it's best that they're not all in the house I think she keeps a couple in there just for Her favorite ones get to stay in there. Does anybody call her the cat lady? She's actually got a sign That's hanging in our garage for her garage at home that says like cat lovers Lane So she's definitely a cat lover, but you know, I think that people call her Call her cat lady to or behind her back all the time. There's no one that fits the mold better better than she does Was that your first pet grown up a cat? Yeah. Yeah, you know, I had a dog. Her name was Abby She was a black lab whenever you're younger, but we had a black cat named Rocky that he passed away at the age of 17 You know, he was around from the get-go for me. So, you know, she's she's definitely instilled the The love for cats in my lifestyle because I don't my dad's a big hunter and my mom's animal lover in general So it's it's a it's a funny dynamic at the house, man. The house is divided for sure What about a hamster? Did you ever have one of those? I did man. I had hamsters I had a guinea pig and I wish I could save every animal out there That's something that definitely, you know, is a soft spot in my heart It's just making sure the animals are always taken care of so, you know, people might not get that Because of the persona that I give off it, man. I'm a I'm an animal lover at heart for sure Is it safe to say that you're not finished with just like the two cats like you think you probably get more? Dude, no, no, I can't I can't get more if I would have got like three or four at once That would have been fine But I don't think I'll add to the group because they get territorial and they're in their boys and and I know from Experience whenever my mom would bring another one home They they like to mark their territories so they they definitely will start spraying in the house And it just becomes a nuisance for the cat that came in I don't want to put another cat make him feel like the the black sheep in the crowd, man What's a chill sesh for Clint Frazier? So Main priority is food for me that I consider that a hobby finding new places to eat So I love oceans prime just got involved in fresh kitchen down here Love green lemon, you know, I'm trying to hit all the spots that everyone talks about so first It's it's what are we eating after that, you know Come home play with the cats let him outside and get him into their natural habitat But I am in love with the show friends. I have a movie collection that I started. I don't rent I buy I'll go back and watch them. I'll do it on the Apple TV. That's the biggest thing man as I I've gotten into watching movies a lot like all kinds of all kinds of movies So it's just cool for me to Just see what's out there. I mean, I I feel like I've lived in this Like introvert lifestyle where I do the same routine every day see the same people every day And I wanted to expand it So I've tried to get out of my my comfort zone and and go out and do some stuff and then start watching movies that I Didn't think I would watch so I mean, I'm definitely trying different things this year. You watch friends Louie Severino Tyler Wade, I'm hooked on friends dude. It's it's never gonna go away and the thing is like I Don't think no matter what time you were born in You can't watch that show, you know what I mean? Like I hope my kids one day watch that show because that is it's one of the best shows out there I think I ran a Twitter poll this offseason trying to see if they thought friends was one of the top five movies of all time And it's 51% of them said yes, I think it's fun trying to figure out what character you think that you fit best And I don't know Really know which one I would fit most what season are you off? I finished it already man Oh, I watch every every show man. I mean I stranger things the newsroom. That's a great one It's a way to pass the time Not being involved in something physical, you know, like every day we we go to the field and we do So much work man, and it's just it's a way to decompress and just kind of it makes you laugh I'm trying to surround myself around a lot of positive things right now, you know, so that show is nothing but Positivity and you know whenever I get to New York, I want to check places off I want to go I want to go see the apartment that they were at You know, I want to go to the coffee shop like I know that yeah But I was heartbroken to find out that Central Perk is not a real coffee shop It is actually the studio That they made in the it it really upset me and to find out that in Monica's apartment Like on the other side of the wall is where they do Central Perk that upset me like it I Got I mean I feel like I'm one of their friends No pun when season 10 ends I feel bad for whoever just finished that one because it's it's like a part of you's gone You don't really what what show do you go to next is the thing because that's the best one out there in my opinion So I just think any anything that you know us as entertainers or ballplayers do to to kind of have an outlet away from the field is Good, and you know if guys are watching That show, you know kudos to whoever produced it, you know, it seems like everyone loves that show So I feel about art you just sit down and you got a canvas and you could do whatever you want with it And just kind of space out almost like when you listen to music, you know, oh dude. Yeah, she's an art man I've enjoyed going looking at art too. I haven't actually bought my first piece But I I was in Scottsdale looking at like it was like a popsicle stick that was like I don't even know dude It was like a real popsicle stick on a on a board and I almost bought it was like $1,000 I was like mesmerized by it, but I when I think of a big purchase I always try to think what would my mom say and if I bought a thousand dollar popsicle stick, dude Like she really my neck so your mom would have been like we could have gotten 10 cats with that money Oh more than that man. They're like $25 That's smart. You can get way more man. Like I'm almost I was at Petsmart the other day with my mom and we bought a cat perch and there was three cats that were on sale for $25 and I was about to go to the front desk and pay $25 for all of them So someone that maybe couldn't afford it could come in and then the cats free, you know I almost paid their adoption fees because It's sad seeing them caged up. So, you know, I want to give them a home But you know, they'll all find their place at some point The thing about cat stuff is, you know, like I was talking to bird the other day You know, it's got mr. Delicious and there's automatic cat feeders out there, you know Thank God someone out there made an automatic cat feeders. I'm good once I get that We can go on a road trip and and get after it's the hard thing about the profession that you know Some of us are in is you you miss out on so much that Your friends get to do to do, you know, like we're gone for Eight nine months out of the year while everyone else is still back home. We can't get dogs Maybe, you know, it could be a hard lifestyle and your your relationship your family your your kids Like you miss out on some things. So, you know in a lot of ways, you know, there's things that I Crave that my friends have and there's things that I have that my friends crave about us. So it's Everyone wants a piece of a lifestyle that they can't have so It's it's nice to have, you know, the flexibility to be able to have two cats, though What do you think your boys would have said if you bought that thousand dollar popsicle dude? I had one of them with me. He wanted me to get it He the thing is like it would have been a down by there's no doubt about it But like my biggest thing with art because I'm I am intrigued by it I want to I want to have something on the wall that when someone comes in I can tell them what it means And I don't really know if I could have done that with a popsicle on On a board dude, but it looks sick art is what you make of it, you know, so that's how I look at it You know like someone Felt something saw something and they made it like that so that means something to them But for me to make a purchase like that I need something that that Draws meaning to me and and that's what I'm intrigued by everyone has their own strengths And I think you just stick to them money money doesn't need to be the driving factor and why you Step out of your element. You got to just stay in your lane, man. You can't be swerving around everywhere. It's dangerous especially nowadays with Social media everywhere cameras everywhere Dude social media is It's powerful, you know, I've seen how it can be positive. I've seen how it can be negative But it's a big part of everyone's life But you know if you make it positive a lot a lot of good can come from it So I mean I I definitely enjoy getting on social media from time to time when I say time to time I'm on it every day Twitter's the best app man. Like I can't stay off that a lot of things that you will tweet or Something that you put up on Instagram. There's always a ton of legs. There's always a ton of retweets. You're like the like one line machine Dude, you got to give it to the fans though. I mean if it wasn't for them. I wouldn't get Retweets and likes. I mean we got the best fans in baseball So it's all the credit to them for you know wanting to stay relevant or stay up to date with what I'm doing and you know I'm trying to I'm trying to let them Stay interactful with me. It's cool to put some content out there that might not necessarily Mean a lot to me but to see what it means to other people, you know, they get fired up anything baseball related So trying to keep them involved in my life So I like doing it and it's also awesome, too that you're the one who's doing the tweeting You're the one who's just being you authentic, which is important. That's the thing man This is I want to make sure that my tweets match up with how I act in person. You know, I don't want it to be Someone looking at me and think that it's not me tweeting, you know, I want to be transparent I want people to get the real Clint and you know, I do some pretty out there things I say some some wild things, but you know, I I never have any harm by it I I think I'm funny people might not think I'm funny, but like I don't care. So I just I just try to have fun man Overall, it's just it's just an app. You just got to use it the right way It's powerful and it's good and it's bad. It's made everything what it is today You know, I mean it's one way for everyone to stay in touch with each other And you know, I want to keep people up to date and I don't I'm not the person that's gonna take a picture of The water because I'm sitting next to it, you know, like I don't I don't necessarily want to Everyone to know what I'm doing. I just want them to know my thoughts. I try to drop one-liners, man The more that I write The the more of a chance it has of getting spun a different way. I'll throw some cryptic tweets out there and then sometimes I'll just throw something out there that's maybe like a an Inside joke between me and my friends Genuinely, I am laughing at everything that is on my Twitter page That's or unless it's like me hitting a baseball over Fenway, you know Like I just try to do things where it's like wow, like this is this guy's different Like you I want you to get the real me. So, you know, that's the goal every time I tweet something Do you ever go back and look at a tweeter an Instagram post and you're like, oh, I don't like to clarify you that picture Delete just clean up the feet a little bit. So it's it's weird. So I am Way more particular about what is on my Twitter than I am my Instagram I mean reality is a tough teacher, you know, so you got to you got to be real with what you're putting on your page And know that once you hit the button to send it out there. It's no longer yours. That's the thing It's that's that's how I kind of You know try to to live by my tweets is just knowing that once I send it send that tweet It's not mine anymore. It can go however. Anyone wants it and be perceived in any way. Hey, that's a good tweet right there Reality is a tough teacher. She is man. She'll get you it's every day man every day you're You're faced with some kind of situation. So just got to be smart about it We're over in your jeeter's house actually right now. I think the way that he lives man. That is the Like that's the way that you should live. He just did he did everything the right way That's what it comes down to so He's a great guy for someone like myself to Think what would you do before I send that tweet out? You know take a note out of the captain's handbook and try to be a little more discreet, but it's not me, man I don't I don't like to hide what I'm doing It's not who I am it's like those bracelets wwjd what would jeter do what would jeter do? Everyone dreams of having the career that he had and with that career comes a lot of money and you know, that's That's awesome, but it's not that's not what it's about for for me, you know, I never I mean my family had money growing up, but we also went through a tough time where my dad was unemployed for five years and You know, that's whenever I was 18 years old So I know what it's like to have money and to not have money. So it's just It's just a matter of being aware. I was not raised around a ton of money So I try to you know keep that in mind before I purchased a thousand dollar popsicle stick I Gotta see this thing dude. Am I not even a popsicle stick? I think it's a paintbrush to be honest I don't even know what it is There was a popsicle stick and then there was a paintbrush And I have the paintbrush on my phone, but I wanted them both But I had to think about those two cats at home and the the popsicle sticks you could actually like Sit them down on the table like they were big and all I could think about was that thing costs so much and Poppy or Phoenix is gonna knock it right off and it's gonna break I think the paintbrush hung on the wall and dude, it's sick like you'll see why I wanted to buy it you get a man cave What are you putting in it? My parents did a really good job at making sure that they held on to everything in my life like I have The first home run that I ever hit as a kid. I think it's dated in like 2001 or something like that You know, I have like all the jerseys of the teams that I've played for I actually got My dad every jersey that I've played in and I have we have them In cases hanging on the wall at my parents house at my house. I have my players weekend jersey I've got a lot of really cool awards that I won back in high school that are all at their house all of my like on the the ceiling of my room is Shelves of all the home runs that I've hit in my career earlier in my career. We've kind of cop stop You know holding on to all of them since I got a little bit older, but did you get your first MLB home run ball back? I did I had to sign I Had to sign a bunch of stuff for the guy that caught it, but those kids were fired up man It was I'm just glad that the right person caught it didn't have to come out of pocket for anything But what do you ask for? You know, I just I right after the game they were in the dugout. I got to meet I think he was I think he was the head coach of a little league team He was affiliated with the little league team in some way, but you know I just autographed all there all the baseballs that they had and just took pictures with him and talked to him It was done the right way. I'm glad the guy, you know, it's really Really generous with the fact that that's that's a very meaningful ball to me and I turned right around I gave it to my dad So, you know, no one better to hold on to it than him. He's he's definitely the The driving force and why I continue to you know try to go out there and try to make everybody proud Sounds like you hit the ball to the right first. I definitely did man. They were good people for sure But but I don't know man about the man cave. I never I don't know I I'll definitely want a lot of Special moments in my professional career in there I've thought about you know trying to get something from Tom Brady, you know people that play significant roles and and what I'm trying to you know replicate I want to have a career like theirs So they're all beasts at everything they do and you know in the back of my head are things that they've said or done and I'm trying to you know speak those into existence for myself So just just big big time role models in my life is who I would probably want in my man cave And I'm still trying to develop who those people are so Maybe got to get a few things signed by my dad and put them in there You know just something to give back to the people Have you taken advantage of the whole system of being in the big leagues and got the ballboys running back and forth I'm around like one o'clock in the afternoon go from clubhouse to clubhouse just kind of like swapping the autographs I got a couple balls signed by I got one signed by Carlos Correa I was out to a in George Springer when I debuted in Houston I Didn't even know that I could do it one of the clubbies just came up and asked if I won anything when I was like Yes, didn't know that they were gonna be the team to beat us how the playoffs, but it was a big moment for me I got Nelson Nelson Cruz and Robinson Cano whenever we were in Seattle, but I think that's about it You know, I don't know how they feel Knowing that another player is asking for their autograph. I gotta act the part man I'm the greatest organization in the world. So it's a look who it is that Greg bird Bird Little segment right now See you bro Where's mr. Delicious, but uh, mr. Delicious has some swag. I think he's got He's got his own like sweater that he wears, you know, he sleeps in Greg's Sweat shirt. So I mean the guy's living life for a cat that For a cat that gets to travel as much as he does and he's related to mr. Bigglesworth, dude That is crazy, you know, I when he told me that I was like, all right, dude You've got a you got a pretty cool cat man It's got some history at him. I'm anxious to find out how many more people in the Yankees are cat people You know, I found out that Tommy's mom apparently has 20 20 cats Greg has a cat. I have two cats. I want to know how many more people are Cat people there's a lot of cat lovers. You guys could probably have a cat part of your cat club I don't know how many professional athletes are this indulged in cats, but dude, I've got to be I've got to be in some rare company up there It's it's fun. I mean we've been talking about our cat my cats the whole time, dude That's how much I love them. So it's fun. But no, like I said, you know, you got a you got to be a professional At all times today Because we're the New York Yankees, you know We got a lot of guys on the team that are the driving force and why we have so much attention Still, you know, everyone did what they did in the past to create this huge cloud of Expectations over our head and we're gonna continue to try to do that ourselves for the people that are coming up after we're gone So I'm honored to be a part of this team because it's in my opinion the best team in baseball But it's also the best guys in baseball, too. So it's it's really cool to be in the clubhouse It's it's a hard clubhouse to be involved in and you know, I'm trying to stay there and be a part of something special with these guys All right, so a Regular day. Mm-hmm. You wake up brush your teeth Go into the kitchen grab grab a water, you know, I've been trying to Eat more fruits eat some greens. So, you know into fresh kitchen and got this drink It's called the it's called strawberry chewy and so I'm trying to start my mornings off right seeing a guy like Tom Brady Who's 40 and he's taking care of his body the way that he is opens my eyes Everyone wants to have a long career. And so if I can increase, you know, the longevity of my career by, you know Doing some things differently in my diet. That's what I'm gonna do. And you know I'm an entertainer I have to do what it takes to go out in the field and continue to make people excited and to ultimately Accomplish one goal. So if it means, you know, mixing some some greens in my diet in the morning, I'm I'm all for it. I want to be on the field. I don't want to be in the dugout. So throw it all in the blender Oh, man, you got to it's spinach kale. Oh, I'm charred Swiss charred. I don't know much about greens, man People are gonna learn a lot about me after this man. And I have never cooked a meal for myself So you never like grilled a burger or eggs or What about like spaghetti? I'm sorry for everyone that's here in this but no everything you say It's never been done by me, man It's one of those things that I just don't even want to attempt. I just I want my food right there And I want it now. I don't have time to sit over and cook it myself. It's pathetic I'm sorry to everyone that's here in this But you got to blame these people for being so smart for giving us access to all of this stuff So I've been just going on my my phone and downloading, you know Postmates or uber eats and in places that are 15 minutes from my house and I'm calling them and they're bringing food to me, man I'm I think it's just a part of We're so busy every day and the last thing I want to do is go get in my car and drive out get stuck in traffic And get food, you know, and it's laziness, but we're not lazy people. So I'm just lazy in that aspect. I do not want to do that It's just like I said, it's pathetic to say that other people cook really good, man I'm trying to make the most of that. You appreciate others. Yes And you let them know by eating their meals crushing their meals, dude. Love it so
