Some excellent Stout Stat’s from RWO friend and frequent poster, Marc Stout!

Happy 27th birthday #24

Dex has started more games in CF than any Rockie; 448.
His 548 career appearances are the 14th most in the club’s history.
Fowler passed new manager Walt Weiss (523 games) on August 31, 2013 for 14th all time.
If Dex appears in 121 games in 2013, he’ll move into the top 10 games played in franchise history.
Dexter was 1 of only 26 MLB’ers to hit .300 or better in 2012.
He was 1 of 6 players to hit .300 or better as a Center fielder: (McCutchen :327, Trout :326, Hunter .313, Jay .305, Jackson .300, Fowler .300)
His .300 BA raised his career BA from .262 to .271.
His career BA in his 7 minor league seasons is .300.
Most impressive was Fowler’s .389 on base percentage last year, 10th best in all of baseball.
Dex had 11 triples, 3rd most in the game last year.
He is the Rockies’ all time leader with 50 career triples

(FYI: HOF’er Sam Crawford, who played from 1899-1917, is baseball’s all time leader with 309 3 baggers).

Of the 320 big leaguers born in his home state of Georgia, only 12 have more triples than Dex.
He needs 4 triples to tie JACKIE ROBINSON’S career total of 54.

(FYI: HOF’s born in GA are Ty Cobb, Johnny Mize, Bill Terry, and Jackie….)

Only 50 players born in Georgia have played more games in the bigs than Fowler.
Fowler is 3 hits away from 500 in his career; he’s had 3 or more hits in a game 32 times.

His first 3 plus hit game came on Sunday afternoon, 4/26/09, against Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers at Coors Field.
Kershaw, who has had the LOWEST ERA in the NL the last 2 years, has struggled against Dex.
Fowler has MORE HITS, 12, off of Kershaw than any pitcher.
Kershaw is the only pitcher he has double digit hits vs.; Dex is 12 for 30 vs. Kershaw, a .400 BA.

1 for 22 vs Kevin Correia
3 for 22 vs Ted Lilly
He’s fanned 10 times against both Matt Cain (3 for 19) and Tim Lincecum (6 for 32).

Dex has hit .295 at Coors Field in his career, .301 in July and August, and has 20 or more hits against 13 clubs (58, his most, vs LAD).
He’s hit 28 HR’s, 20 at Coors Field, 8 against AZ, and his first ever home run led off a game (4/8/09).
His most recent HR was his first and only grand slam, on 9/1/12.
Fowler has played 509 games defensively; he’s been in CF 509 times, and RF ONCE.
On 9/16/08, in the bottom of the 9th, with the Rockies leading SD at home 10-2, Dex moved from CF to RF and Seth Smith from RF to CF; ???
Dexter is the only person with the first name of DEXTER to play in the majors; ever.
