I’m willing to bet the SO rate got worse when Howard returned.

And that Howard was better in 2007, when he hit 268/392/584 with 47 home runs, than he has been lately.

At 1B and LF, the Phillie walk rate was the worst in 2012 that it has been at least in eight years. Haven’t looked back further than that, though. I’m guessing it’s been a long time since the walk rate was that low at either position.

He (Burrell) really isn’t remembered as fondly as he should be around Phillie-land.

Sorry.

I wonder if the pre- Howard and with-Howard numbers showed an appreciable difference.
