Go Brewers . They can't hit but you can't lose if the other team never scores a run. The Brewers have a team batting average of .227, 3rd from the bottom. But their opponents are batting .212 which is lowest in the league. 212 is something out of the dead ball era, except there's too many home runs for that era.
Best scoring differential in the MLB (runs scored minus runs allowed)
1) Dodgers (65-45) +163
2) Astros (66-45) +151
3) Giants (69-41) +126
4) Blue Jays (59-50) +122
5) White Sox (65-46) +115
6) Rays (66-44) +109
The Dodgers are in 2nd place in their division and somehow the Blue Jays are 4th??
The best record for someone with a negative differential is the Phillies. They are -8 but their record is 58-53 and they are leading the division.
The Mets run differential is certainly among the worst in the league despite their winning record. All their wins are close games as they don't score any runs but pitch well, and their losses are blowouts as when they pitch poorly, they still can't hit.

Summer drought wanker in the ski/citrus zone of Georgia, DESTROYING polar foamers and monsoonal foamers with FACTS and LOGIC
Above 40 degrees north there is no spring warmth, above 50 degrees north there is no summer drought, above 60 degrees north there is no semblance of mildness, and above 70 degrees north there is only an icy hell — Metsfan’s adage, ‘round Cape May
They are near the top of the league in offense. A few games go their way, maybe the pitching improves, and they're in first place.
AL East will be extra-scary next year. It's already an insane division this year. But if Blue Jays start playing to their Pythagorean, and the Yankees stop underperforming, then it can really be a historic division

Yankees beat the Red Sox twice today to find themselves in the Wild Card spot. On July 4th, the Yankees were ten games outside the playoff spots. Crazy turnaround
That's really cool, never knew about it. Was too young to remember I guess.

This is the worst World Series possible. As a Mets fan, I'm rooting for the Asterisks. I just hate the Braves is all.

alex992 this video is a must watch for you. Every baseball fan says that their team in uniquely unlucky. I’ve heard it from you about the Marlins during my early days on the forum. But no one has it worse than us Mets fans

Baseball is back! The MLB owners and players inked a deal on a new collective bargaining agreement, and the lockout is officially over. Now free agency and spring training can resume.
