Grashnaak Blackhoof doesn't have Frenzy and Throw Team Mate skills? Normal minotaur has it. It's kinda strange.

Grashnak was a starplayer way before the rules for rookie big guys was created.
He could only be hired by Chaos or Chaos Dwarf, which did not include any Right stuff players, therefore no TTM.
As the star player he is, he is so controlled that he does not have Wild Animal and Frenzy, or said in another way, frenzy is meant to curse a wild animal in the way that if you do not make a turnover in first attemp, then try again.
Allthough some of the old star players are way overpowered, they at least had the common sence at the time of creation not to create a ST6, horns, Mighty Blow player with frenzy in the same way that none of the star players has Piling On.

Chaos can actually freeboot players that can be thrown.

And Grashnak doesn't have Wild Animal either, so the loss of TTM and Frenzy isn't such a terrible thing.

Exactly. That's the answer to why the rookie Mino has TTM.

And for those interested in the fluff, Grashnak is supposed to be a very intelligent and controlled Minotaur, able to negotiate complex contracts so that he gets all kinds of benefits, like a personal maze... "I'm milking them for all they're worth" he's supposed to have said! Or something. Damn I need a life!
