Message #4 by Rob Reed @ February 24, 2012, 02:37pm personally I go with Butler or Morales... Lowrie hasn't impressed me that he can hit above league average... he also started to swing a little more freely. Obviously, my preference is Butler, but Morales could give you a lot more value... but, I'm one to love the long ball way too much.

Message #3 by Brian Ramos @ February 14, 2012, 03:26pm thoughts? If he can stay healthy, do you like Lowrie now that he should get the playing time at SS with the Astros? I am considering keeping him for my last keeper spot. He would cost a 24th, 22nd, and 20th round pick for the next 3 years. Otherwise, I am thinking of keeping either Billy Butler or Kendrys Morales both 1 year keepers only that would cost me a 16th or 25th round pick, respectively. What would you do? Thanks! Brian

Message #2 by Rob Reed @ March 20, 2009, 10:20am not sure full-time I would suspect that, no, he won't be full-time. His college power numbers were respectable, but nothing to call home about in the minors. His 4 year career average in the minors is in the .280s, if memory serves. Doesn't steal bases. When Lugo gets back, I have to figure he'll retain the job unless Lowrie suddenly becomes this amazing hitter, but I don't see it. As far as fantasy value, Lugo's the better bet for me because of the SBs.

Message #1 by Bearlo0317 @ March 19, 2009, 03:26pm Lowrie What are your thoughts on him? Do you think he will be Boston Full time SS and what round in 14 team head to head would you take a shot on someone like him?
