Although A-Rod beats Lowell in HR’s, RBI’s, and Runs there are several other areas where Lowell wins and is a better fit for the Red Sox. Lowell had a better average this year and this should not be easily dismissed. For most of the season he had J.D. Drew batting behind him. Pitchers did not have to worry that much about putting him on because J.D. was always good for a 4-6-3 double play. A-Rod had Posada behind him most of the season.
