Team Stats from Opening Day to 5/5

[TheRivernator]

I think I'll shake things up a bit and use my interest in stats and make some use out of it, while I procrastinate from doing my paper. As always, I'll use team stats as individual player stats to this point are still rather premature (although you could follow trends), but team stats are a good thing to follow. Here goes

 

 

Pitching Stats of note

Boston Red Sox

Overall 18th in MLB, 7th in the AL with a 4.67ERA

Overall on the road, 25th in MLB, 9th in AL with a 5.33ERA

Starters 19th in MLB, 7th in the AL with a 4.96ERA

Relievers 14th in MLB, 5th in the AL with a 4.13ERA

Bridge ERA 5.10

Boston has the 8th fewest IP by their relievers in the majors, meaning that their starters are pitching deep into games for the most part. They are averaging 2.93 IP/game by their relievers.

 

New York Yankees

Overall 4th in MLB and 2nd in AL at 3.72

Overall on the road 8th in MLB, 3rd in AL at 3.89

Overall at home, 6th in MLB, 3rd in AL at 3.55

Overall during the day, 1st in MLB at 2.80

Overall at night, 15th in MLB, 6th in AL at 4.36

Overall in Close and Late scenarios, 2nd in MLB, 1st in AL at 1.35

Starters 6th in MLB, 3rd in AL at 4.13

Relievers 3rd in MLB, 1st in AL at 2.89

Bridge ERA 2.80

NYY has the 3rd fewest IP by relievers in baseball, but they have also played one of the fewest totals of games. They are averaging a fraction more IP/game by their reliever than the sox though, at 2.98.

 

Hitting Stats

Boston Red Sox

15th (8th in AL) in BA at .260

6th (5th in AL) in OBP at .356

17th (8th in AL) in SLG at .413

13th (8th in AL) in OPS at .769

Boston is 25th in MLB w/RISP at .242

Boston is 16th in MLB w/RISP&2outs at .224

Runs/(H+BB )- 35%

Boston is averaging 4.8R/game

 

New York Yankees

3rd in AL and MLB at .292

1st in MLB w/ .389

4th in MLB and AL at .475

2nd in MLB at .865

9th in MLB w/RISP at .279

18th in MLB w/RISP&2outs at .222

R/(H+BB ) 40%

NYY is averaging 6.04 R/game

 

R/H+BB is essentially a view of how bad a club is at geting runners on base to score. It is essentially LOB% but LOB% does not take into account players erased on DPs. This is essentially a stat focused on what % of players reaching base score.

 

No analysis, just stats. I used ESPN and their filter options for the stats. Hope you guys like them.....

Hmm, yea these are totally relevant, because ya kno, we're missing our leadoff hitter, weakening our offense, especially low in the order, Manny just realized the eason started, and our 5th starter is injured. And despite all that we're only one game back and were in possession of 1st place for most of the early season. Oh yeah, and we beat you 7-3.

??? It is a month into the year and I am the stat man. I should have done this 5 days ago. Like I said, no analysis, just the stats that you cannot dispute, period....

[jsinger121]

guess what no ones cares about stats this early in the season.

[MANNYHOF24]

1 month doesnt make a season, you should know that look how the Yankees started last year, plus we are tied for first place, what were you 11-19?, talk to me in July when Coco has been back for a couple months

These are stats, STATS. NO ANALYSIS! If you want analysis, let me ask you this. Is Coco also the reason why the sox had a rough month in the pitching dep't....

[Cityofchampions33]

Which is exactly why you posted just the Sox n Yankees stats, btw who declared you stat man?

[jsinger121]

He just wants any chance to be a troll and rub in the yankees stats are better than the sox stats in april.

I am not rubbing anything in. I posted stats, stats don't lie.

And its May 5th....Talk to me in August and September.

[KeepTheFaith1229]

I wonder if Ortiz was excluded from the hitting stats...

 

(just kidding riv)

nope. He was in there....

Based on stats last year on may 14th, they would tell you that the Yankees were out of it and had no chance of winning

[TheRivernator]

absolutely. The stats are only a measure of how you did thus far, it does not mean it will continue...

[a700hitter]

Wow! I had no idea the Yankee pitching was so good. They are highly under-rated.

[MANNYHOF24]

absolutely. The stats are only a measure of how you did thus far, it does not mean it will continue...

 

Oh I guess I misunderstood what you were trying to poit out
