G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 This is actually pretty cool
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 8, 2013 Author Posted November 8, 2013 Suck on that Evan Longoria!

G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 8, 2013 Author Posted November 8, 2013 And he twists his ankle and is out until May. So possible. LOL. That would be sooo "Brett Lawrie" of him. I wonder how many tries before he got this
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 God damn this guy is a freak. Too bad he's a dumb douchebag.
Captain Adama Old-Timey Member Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Beats headphones are garbage.
Sammy225 Old-Timey Member Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 My question is..... Is he wearing f***ing tights???????!!!!
Captain Adama Old-Timey Member Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Those look like diabetes stockings.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 8, 2013 Author Posted November 8, 2013 (edited) He really is a pretty spectactular athlete. Reflexes, speed, strength. Obviously your body type somewhat determines what you're best suited for, but rewind this guy 10 years, retrain him, and I wouldn't bet against him becoming any of: Olympic track and field star NHL defenseman or goalie NFL running back Edited November 8, 2013 by G-Snarls
JaysFan4Ever Verified Member Posted November 8, 2013 Posted November 8, 2013 Not bad but I had flashbacks to Aaron Boone's incident playing basketball in the off-season years ago.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 And he twists his ankle and is out until May. That would be better than the donuts he was doing in the dome parking lot, getting into an accident last May.

jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 He clearly picked the one sport where it hurts you to go all out, all the time. But I agree with Dinger, every NFLer is just as athletic and ripped as him, his body wouldnt give him an edge

What makes him special is the reflexes and explosiveness.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Seriously?? couldn't get confirmation from anyone legitimate but this was directly from a security guard for the dome that was on duty at the time.
JaysAllMighty Old-Timey Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Too bad he's got a cement head.
Convo Verified Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 God damn this guy is a freak. Too bad he's a dumb douchebag. I swear to god I went to school with a guy who reminded me so much of Lawrie. Pretty athletically included, but dumb as a stump too... almost to the point of being semi-retarded.
wilko Old-Timey Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 My computer only lets me view vine videos. I'm assuming he's wearing beats headphones and probably risking injury for next season.

Nox Verified Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Sure, there's a million guys with muscle mass like that. What makes him special is the reflexes and explosiveness. Lawrie is not as good an athlete as the average NFL skill position player. Sorry.
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Lawrie is not as good an athlete as the average NFL skill position player. Sorry. Depends what his 40 time is..need that speed. Sure his 40 time would be underwhelming for NFL skill player though
baseballsss Verified Member Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Sure, there's a million guys with muscle mass like that. What makes him special is the reflexes and explosiveness. Adrian Peterson is a special talent. Lawrie wouldn't come close.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 9, 2013 Author Posted November 9, 2013 Adrian Peterson is a special talent. Lawrie wouldn't come close. To him? Noooo. How does he compare to the average or second string RB? Hard to say. Interesting question though. There just aren't many guys in MLB with the athleticism of Lawrie, Trout, Puig, etc. Most are in the majors cause they can do one thing really well, like have great arms and can pitch or have great hands and can hit.
admin Site Manager Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Lawrie is not as good an athlete as the average NFL skill position player. Sorry. He doesn't train to be one though. Who knows what he is capable of. Probably not likely though, but I don't think he's far off. The guy is a freak. This is a guy that most people said he wouldn't be able to stick at 3B, yet in his first year he was a well above average defender. That's something that 99.9% of athletes could not do.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted November 9, 2013 Author Posted November 9, 2013 And I'm not saying let him try out for the Detroit Lions now. I'm saying what if, 10 years ago, he'd decided he wanted to be an NFL player and trained for that instead of baseball. Could he have done it.

I guess he could probably be but i don't think he would be as good as the better running backs in the NFL. But i have nothing to back that statement up.

Sigh, we need baseball news
