Have to wonder why the Dodgers aren't at least a little interested in Lawrie. Obviously he is nothing special, but he's better than their internal options at the moment, and likely won't cost much to acquire.

 

Agreed. He's not great but not bad, cheap at $3.5 mill, and wouldn't cost much to acquire like you said.

I too wonder why he's never mentioned with LAD. Supposedly they are looking for a right handed hitter which he is. Is he still hurt? Anyone hear injury update?

 

Love to get Barnes from them for Lawrie, even if we have to add a little.

At this point Lawrie isn't going to get us anything more than fringe guy, if that much. The only way he gets more is if we added in something like a reliever.

I think Barnes would be a reach. Fringe guy or two as the other poster said is probably what we're looking at.

This is worth the click... it's obvious his feet are royal f***ed up

Looking at this video, it's pretty obvious now as to why he has foot issues. Look at how much tibial varum (the bowing in) he has in his lower leg. His bone structure adds stress to either his knee or his feet. His issues manifested in his feet. This is not an easy issue to fix.

He also has flat feet.
