Table Insights
Extracted from rolling tables above.
Strongest
TB Fade
FADE: The Tampa Bay bullpen has been one of the worst in baseball over the last week, allowing runs at an alarming rate. Their save rate is sitting at just 33%, meaning they are blowing close games regularly. This group has fallen apart after looking solid over the past month.
TEX Fade
FADE: The Texas bullpen looked fine a month ago but has completely unraveled recently, ranking 27th in the league over the last week. They are giving up a lot more runs than you would expect based on the quality of contact they are allowing. This is a pen you want to avoid right now.
LAA Value
VALUE: The Angels bullpen numbers look rough on the surface, but the actual quality of contact they are allowing suggests they have been getting unlucky. They have been facing a tough schedule on top of that, which makes the results look even worse than they are. There is a good chance this group pitches better in the coming days.
CHC Value
VALUE: The Chicago Cubs bullpen has been quietly solid over the last week, sitting in the top half of the league while trending in the right direction. Their contact numbers suggest they have actually been pitching even better than the results show. This is a group that has been getting the job done without a lot of attention.
COL Value
VALUE: Colorado starters have been getting crushed lately, but the contact they are allowing does not fully explain the damage. Their ERA over the last week is nearly 8, but the underlying contact quality points to something closer to 5. Facing a tough schedule has also made things look worse than they probably are.
MIN Value
VALUE: Minnesota starters have been on a roll lately, posting a 2.48 ERA over the last week with a solid 0.975 WHIP. They have been keeping runners off base and limiting damage consistently. The rotation has real momentum right now after a rougher stretch a month ago.
NYM Fade
FADE: The Mets rotation has been trending in the wrong direction despite facing easy competition lately. Their ERA has crept up recently and their walks have been a problem, limiting how deep starters can go. The schedule was soft and they still could not take advantage.
TEX Fade
FADE: Texas starters have put up a very low ERA this week, but the actual quality of pitching does not back that up at all. Their contact-based numbers suggest runs should be coming at a much higher rate, meaning this looks more like good fortune than good pitching. Expect the results to get worse before they get better.
ARI Value
VALUE: Arizona has been one of the hottest offenses in baseball lately, scoring nearly 7 runs per game over the last week. Their lineup has a wRC+ of 139, which means they are hitting well above the league average right now. The bats are running hot and the momentum is real.
ATL Fade
FADE: Atlanta's offense has been surprisingly quiet lately, averaging just over 3 runs per game despite facing easy competition. Their wRC+ of 78 means they are hitting well below average as a group right now. This is not what you expect from a team with this much talent, and the slide has been going on for a while.
