I guess Lawler will be a utility player until someone is hurt.

Sucks for Lawlar. He's playing well at AAA, but Marte about to return, Perdomo/Suarez don't appear in danger of getting benched either.

Perfect role for him to get acclimated to the bigs, then he can take over at 3b when Suarez walks. Maybe get him an OF mitt too, because I still say it's 50/50 that he ends up in CF in the long run.

I am going to go on record now. Lawler will be a bust.

How bad? Like Gregory Polanco level bust? Or like, gets an extension, doesn't reach sky high expectations but plays 10yr+ in the bigs?

Doesn't reach sky high expectations. The expectations are for him to be a superstar.

Dang. Should have voted for Cade Horton when this poll popped up. I imagine he gets the call this weekend to fill in for Imanaga.

The brewers made a couple of pitching moves that could make Jacob
Misiorowsk a relevant add to this poll.

As usual, the BO polls are completely wrong.

After another week, he’s still hitless.

Yikes.

He had 2 at-bats between these posts, and 10 total.

Actually 5 at bats, and is now 0-13.

He can’t hit right handers who pitch breaking balls.

It’s crazy. He must not have faced any right handers who pitch breaking balls in AAA while he was hitting .330+ this year.

I think the real issue is inconsistent playing time. 13 ABs in 2 weeks? Why even call him up?
