I thought I'd share some interesting tidbits of information I found about Jeffrey.
All data is from
Baseball Reference (one of the top three baseball stat sites on the net, the other two being
Fangraphs and
Hit Tracker):
Jeff Francoeur (Career AVG/OBP/SLG)
- First pitch:† .372/.397/.689
- 0-2 count: .098/.107/.147
- 2-0 count: .375/.375/781
- 1-1 count: .301/.297/.477
- 2-2 count:† .167/.174/.273
- Full count: .169/.300/.424
Compare that to Chipper Jones:
- First pitch:† .367/.366/.614
- 0-2 count: .187/.191/.331
- 2-0 count: .349/.343/.662
- 1-1 count: .358/.351/.646
- 2-2 count:† .210/.210/.375
- Full count: .228/.529/.392
Makes you wonder whether Bobby should pinch hit for Frenchy if he swings and misses on the first pitch!
