and he has the defensive range of a lawn gnome

going by wOBA

Hawpe: .383
Gonzalez: .380
Smith: .383
Fowler: .342

Going by WAR

Hawpe: 1.2
Smith: 2.6
Gonzalez: 2.3
Fowler: .7

and for the people who don’t like smart stats

OPS:

Hawpe: .897
Smith: .890
Gonzalez: .885
Fowler: 763

So when you take into account that Hawpe Has the range of a lawn gnome, and has roughly equal of a bat as Smith and Gonzalez… its easy to see why we need to trade him the offseason before his value becomes that of Atkins.

And one year of WAR is too small a sample size

is hardly a small sample size.. yes their is a chance to regress a bit, but we shouldn’t make the same mistake with Hawpe like we did with Atkins and keep him until its too late.

Nope

See what you can get in return for Hawpe. Maybe a 2b can come back.

Does anyone really think Barmes can repeat the season he has had right now?? And seriously, defense aside, is it really going to be hard to replace a 2b who has an OBP below .300?
