SLAM! Major League Statistics Fryman, who has driven in over 100 runs each of the last two seasons, was obtained from Detroit for infielders Joe Randa and Gabe Alvarez and pitcher Matt Drews, all of whom were taken in today's expansion draft at Phoenix. The 28-year-old Fryman leaves the Tigers after eight seasons in which he collected 1,176 hits, 149 home runs and 679 RBI. Replacing Fryman at third base for Detroit likely will be the productive and less expensive Randa, who hit.302 with seven homers and 60 RBI for the Pirates in 1997, his second full year in the majors. www.canoe.ca /StatsBBM/BC-BBM-LGNS-DBACKDEAL-R.html   (475 words)
