Rios has better power numbers. HR's, RBI's... Plus Crawford has 20 more Ab's.

Crawford has a higher slugging average and they are tied in RBI's, also he has a better OBP. Not to mention, more walks, more runs and more hits.

Again, Crawford has had a total of 232 baserunners while at bat. Rios has had 208. That makes more opportunity for Crawford and it also allows for him to have a better payoff when he does produce.

You cant use the total number of runners. You have to use AVG with RISP.

Rios 289
Crawford 388
Cabrera 348

If you want to paint with a broader brush & just look at AVG with runners on
Rios 275
Crawford 359
Cabrera 341

If you don't include total number of runners, then we are not using a fair sample size to compare Rios. He has had less people on base, therefore limiting his chance of boosting his Avgerage with people on base. It's not fair to compare his lower average with crawford or cabrera when they have had more people on base. Yeah Rios may have a lower average with people on base, but his sample size is also lower which lowers his average compared to others. Would his average with RISP be higher with more baserunners for him? Maybe? We don't know. His batting average by itself is over .300 which leaves good chance that having more baserunners would have to raise his average with RISP.
