Just for fun, fully realizing that the raw numbers are too small to have any real meaning, I decided to look at Rick Ankiel in terms of "clutch" situations I used for other players with more significant appearances going for them.

Ankiel was in mind because he's getting skewered in another thread here, so I was just playing with the numbers.

A composite of Ankiel with Men on 2 Out + 3B < 2 Out [zero K's, by the way] + RISP + Based Loaded = .432 compared to a mean of .270 and a Std. Dev. of @ .05.

Remember, small numbers, all in fun ... but not bad.
