Mauer is still drawing more walks than he is striking out, ranking high in pitches seen per plate appearance, and the difference between his batting average and OPS is at 516 points, only 45 points below his career average. All this would suggest that he has remained disciplined at the plate and is still getting on base despite the average dip. Aside from the home runs, considering his OPS, he is still getting the extra base hits he always has as well. For you sabermetricians, the one stat that does stand out is his secondary average, which is the ratio of other ways of getting bases besides singles (walks, stolen bases, extra base hits), to ones at bats. His SecA, as it is notated, is at .253, 53 points lower than his career number. Considering his lack of stolen bases and home runs, however, this is not surprising.
