Given Lawrie's really high GB rate, I can't ever see him hitting over 20-25 HR a year.
He's a terrific guy when it comes to making contact, but it holy s*** take a couple pitches will ya?

Think about it, that's the only way they could actively spam this board and not get banned, because people don't give half a s*** about that thread to check.
Either him, or Warren. But ya gotta go with the vetrin. After all, it takes a special player to play such an important role like the closer of the Yankees.
I see some similarities to the Marlins trade there.
Really though, despite Ash not trading "much" of the farm system, he still had an affinity for older players and traded away guys whom had present and long-term value to the ballclub.
Let's hope the BABIP stabilizes fairly quickly, the Jays's starters have a collective .366 BABIP, but they've got pretty sex peripherals all around.
I shouldn't even have to throw out a SSS alert at this post.
Here's a good comprehensive list of the stats we use and reference often, including wRC+, wOBA, WAR, FIP, xFIP, etc...
If you have any more questions, I'm sure we'd be happy to explain.
