In 2019, he played collegiate summer baseball with the Orleans Firebirds of the Cape Cod Baseball League.

Toronto Blue Jays Frasso was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the fourth round of the 2020 Major League Baseball draft. He was assigned to the Low-A Dunedin Blue Jays in 2021, where he pitched in three games before suffering a partial tear in the ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow. Frasso returned to Dunedin at the start of the 2022 season. Frasso had a 0.70 ERA with 48 strikeouts in innings pitched at Dunedin before being promoted to the Vancouver Canadians of the High-A Northwest League.
