Winning % with/without Snider the past 3 years?

Does anyone know the Jays winning % over the past 3 years with/without Travis Snider in the lineup? It seems to me that it is a lot higher with him in the lineup. I think he should bat third where he is probably more comfortable.  I doubt he has hit at the bottom of the order at any other level.  He would also get much more RBI opportunities and we would have a much idea of his capabilities for next year.

Bautista would then bat 4th, Wells 5th, etc.    Any thoughts?

There’s reason

yes seriously

In 2008 he played only in September. The Jays had a very good September. He also played during the strong starts of 2009 and 2010. He missed large parts of the losing portions. My guess is that the winning % with him in the lineup in 134 games since Sept. 2008 is > .550 and in the roughly 160 games without him <.470 . I don’t know how to find that out though. Correlation doesn’t prove causation of course. There could be something he adds to the lineup or it could just be random luck.
