According to the 2004 Bill James Handbook:

Marquis Grissom, who drew a total of 20 walks all year, led in OBP by 
a leadoff hitter with a .412 OBP in 167 plate appearances 
there. As a leadoff-man, Grissom drew a walk every 13.9 
plate appearances. Batting everywhere else in the lineup, he 
walked once every 56.4 plate appearances.

Any comments, Mr. Raposa?

Part of that quote is pretty funny considering as it is a reply to my post on the Reds. Looking at how it all played out, it wouldn't have mattered who Boone played. By the end of the year only Casey was left in the lineup, as the the Reds went complete chernobyl.

Fahloooooooooooooooooooooooooook.

Semi-serious question: how many of those games were against the Brewers?
