Why is he a moron? Not sure if you knew but there's been a weird trend lately of box jumping. Harper at 55, then Souza at 58, then Lawrie blew them both

Well he is a moron, maybe just not for this specifically LOL

 

And no I didn't know about it. Your post made me Google it:

Thats actually crazy. Definitely a top 5 athlete in MLB.

 

It's still a bit surprising that baseball is what he chose.

He's pretty short for basketball. I guess he could be a runningback in football but if you are looking to maximize career earnings thats a bad choice. Health wise too.

Lets get JJ Watt to do this and see what happens

That was impressive as f***. Sick of the Lawrie haters. Guy is f***ing awesome. I know he reminds you of the guy who picked on you in high school but its not him.

I just make fun of him (it's easy to do)

 

I own a fairly expensive Lawrie jersey

Well considering how little Lawrie uses his legs in his swing, this impressive feat is about as meaningful as Lebron winning olympic gold in the 500M breast stroke.

 

His legs help him pound the ball extra hard into the ground or something

His season in Oakland was even worse than I'd realized

 

Sub .300 OBP, 4.7% BB rate, 94 wRC+, and 0.6 WAR

And apparently disliked by teamates enough for Beane to basically spite trade him for nothing.
