Griffey Split

by BobbyO on Aug 1, 2006 10:12 PM EDT

I have been very curious about this topic, unfortunately I am not a "stat guy". Could someone come up with a split of Griffey's numbers with Aurillia protecting him in the line up as compared to all others. I think Richie is doing some good things this year, but I think his batting cleanup is having a serious effect on the pitches that Griff is seeing at the plate.

Come on stat guys, step up to the plate and clear up this mystery.

Well..

That's a tough question. I'm going to have to look around my belt here to see what I can find. If I figure it out, you all will be the first to know.

Okay

I think I've got it. Here's the breakdown:

Situation AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI TB BB K AVG OBP SLG
w/out Rich 124 13 32 8 0 6 27 58 12 25 .258 .324 .468
w/ Rich 177 26 40 5 0 15 31 90 11 27 .226 .271 .508

So it looks like he has been hitting for more power, but he has been getting on base considerably less. Either way, neither set of numbers look particularly Griffey-like.
