BTL 2021 vs 2022 (Offense edition)

[Scalious]

Offense was down in the MLB as whole, though SBs went up. 5 of the top 7 offenses in BTL all had notable drops.


The Rangers and�Guardians were this years big time breakouts. Teams like the Padres,�Cubs�and�Royals�moved up big time relative to their peers. Some by only modest improvements�that mean way more when the league as a whole drops in production. Pirates/Rockies also move up by just staying consistent.�

Nats/Dodgers made big gains, and probably the 2 teams most likely to make a Rangers/Guardians like jump in 2023.

Twins keep improving, but it's hard to make a lot of gains when you are already�the best. Giants had one the biggest falls.�Given that�starting point was the best?�They still made the playoffs.

The first number is just the offensive rank move if this were Roto. Doesn't mean much because in H2H if you dominate 3 of 6 hitting Categories like the Twins. You're impossible to beat without pitching.� Still gives you a good idea about how teams changed.

I'm just glad I made playoffs to pay for next year. Injuries decimated my team, Tatis and Franco. Easily my 2 best offensive pieces were non factors. Had no bullpen either due to numerous injuries. Here is to hoping next year is better for me. Lol

With that said love the content!!! Good read for sure
