Yes, that was me who asked the question. Great work, Reb, and thank you.

Glad I'm not going crazy. Not at all surprised that the Tigers are at the top of this list.

Most of my research ideas come from other posters. Thank You for the idea.
 
What is the % of him hitting with 2 outs and nobody on?

edit: its actually his 3rd most common PA behind men on (any situation) and RISP, and just ahead of leading off. Miggy hits with 2 out, none on 24.1% of the time (126/522 PA this season.) If you add up every time he's had a PA with nobody on in any situation, its 59.4% of the time. Clearly, not only are our 1 and 2 hitters not getting on base in front of him a ton, and he shouldnt be hitting in the 3 hole given the large amount of times he is either leading off the inning or hitting with none on, 2 out because the 9, 1, and 2 hitters are sucking. 4 or 2 would be best, with VMart going in whichever one he doesnt.


Pujols: 50.6%
Hosmer: 54.6%
Donaldson: 55.2%

There is a reason that 8 of 10 with the highest percent is in the NL. Just like there is 8 on 10 with the lowest percent is in the AL.
