Lile is a hold — league average, stable, no edge either way.

His xwOBA is .316, essentially league average, and he has 403 plate appearances — well past the 160 needed to trust it. His actual wOBA tracks close at .304. The contact metrics sit at or slightly below league norms: hard-hit rate 35.1% (40% league), exit velo 88.0 mph (89.0 league), barrel rate 7.6% (8.0 league). Nothing stands out as a skill to buy or a crack to sell. There is no luck story — no elevated BABIP inflating his line, no suppressed one hiding it. His xwOBA has been stepping up across the sample, but it still lands near average. If you own him, the roster spot is static. If you don't, there is no edge here. Hold.
