Because Harper is 19, arguably the most highly touted #1 pick ever, and doesn't play his home games in Canada. That said, I agree, Lawrie is gonna be a superstar, and may have a better career than Harper when its all said and done.

RE: Brett Lawrie Blowing UP!
I'm more interested in how he's doing in late July and August when the grind of the season starts to take it's toll than how he's doing against pitchers most people have never heard of and the ones they have are only throwing at a small percentage what they normally would.

RE: Brett Lawrie Blowing UP!
the auto is SP? or the rookie itself?
how is the auto SP more than others? all the refractors have the same #'s that any other color does? or are you speaking of the base crhome auto?
source?

RE: Brett Lawrie Blowing UP!
Base Chrome auto is extremely short printed, as far as numbers, I don't know how many, have heard 250 base, but he doesn't have a refractor version. Only Blue, Gold, Orange, and Red. Hosmer is the same way except Hosmer doesn't even have a blue either. A couple other guys are the same way, but those are the ony guys I've really even looked at.

That reminds me I need to go ahead and list the Gold Refractor Autograph of Lawrie I pulled, while his stuff is so hot.
