ANALYSIS: It seems like ages ago that Brett Lawrie burst onto the scene with a .953 OPS and 16 HR+SB in just 171 AB as a rookie. That was only 2011, but Lawrie has had trouble staying healthy and hasn’t come close to that level of production since. Last season was his best effort so far, though, as he set career highs in HR, RBI and (perhaps most importantly) games played. Now playing half of his games in U.S. Cellular Park rather than the Coliseum, you don’t have to squint too hard to see a 20/10 season. The 2B eligibility is a nice perk, too.
