jack-
is there any historical precedence for a situation like lowell's? that dip in productuin last year was astounding considering he is still real close to peak age.

It's really not that uncommon for a 3B to do it. Take Corey Koskie. Lowell was 31 last year; they tend to get beat up and all. Of course, Lowell's was more exaggerated than Koskie's but you get the point.
Historically, I'm not sure but I doubt it's really rare. Maybe not quite as drastic, of course.

there are slight rumblings that the twins have some interest in him.
