If Crawford/Graderson is like an airsoft gun loaded with ball bearings, Figgins is more like an airsoft gun loaded with peanuts or something.
I'm ambivalent. I've never been a fan of Chawn because he's not a big gun, but a more annoying, not as good version of guys like Ichiro and Lofton. 
The OBP is definitely nice, but now you basically have a lineup with a couple 1s, a couple 5s (Lopez, Gutz) and a bunch of 8/9s. The ship has all the little peashooters it wants, but there's no big gun.
We'll see. Figgins can be an anciliary to the OBP game, and he's real-to-runs OBP. It really comes down to how the rest of the offense comes together.
