Andruw Jones’ batted balls

by Dave Studeman
September 10, 2007

John Beamer has posted a nice article about Andruw Jones today, including some insightful monthly trends. It will be interesting to see if Andruw does command a big contract this offseason.

As a follow up, perhaps some of you would like to take a look at Jones' batted ball profile. I described the batted ball profile format a couple of weeks ago, but space allowed me to only run it for a few players. Well, here's Andruw's profile:

Jones, Andruw

Net Runs per Ball % of Batted Balls %/OF %/PA Total Net Runs

2004 646 0.35 0.46 0.03 31% 16% 48% 20% 23% 11% 46.2 31.5 6.3 -2.3 8.9 90.7 5.3

vs. MLB 0.14 -0.01 -0.04 6% -3% -4% 13% 2% 3% 26.0 -8.1 -7.3 -0.6 6.1

As expected, Andruw has lost a lot of oomph on his outfield flies (despite hitting more of them), but his line drive production has also declined; in fact, it's declined each of the past four years. Add in lower production on his groundballs and more strikeouts, and you pretty much have a quadruple whammy.
