Is it any surprise that a given subset of that will be a good batting average? I'd be far more surprised if a career .240 hitter over 10 years was suddenly a career .375 hitter with RISP. Those things just don't really happen. I don’t pay for a BP subscription, but do find it mildly interesting that the 3 Tigers listed all have career BAs of around .300 or better since 2000 overall.
