Brett Lawrie

Following a fantastic rookie debut, Lawrie has remained healthy in just one of five subsequent seasons. He has some speed but doesn't run often these days. His gap power finds the seats enough to get into double-digit home runs, but he hasn't cracked the 20 homer plateau. Whereas he was once a high-contact hitter, his strikeout rate has risen for three consecutive seasons, and he's now a burden in batting average. The White Sox have taken notice and traded for their second baseman of the future and baseball's No. 1 prospect, Yoan Moncada, this offseason. Moncada will likely spend a couple months in the minors, but when he is ready, Lawrie could see his playing time tick down if he is not producing enough to profile at third base or DH. Believers in the pseudoscience around the "Age 27 breakout" theory should make Lawrie a draft day target. Overall, however, he's reserve round material in deep mixed leagues and a backup plan in single-league formats.
