Why the Engine Rates Phoenix This Way

8th Day Engine · Rating rationale

The 8th Day Engine ranks Phoenix in the upper third of MLB because the club owns a positive run differential (+9), a below-average pitching staff and limited speed. Excellent defence is the department doing most of the lifting. Their staff ERA of 4.18 ranks 18th in MLB, and they score 4.56 runs per game (10th).

About the D-backs

The Arizona Diamondbacks compete in the National League West and play their home games at Chase Field, opened in 1998. Arizona's first major-league club, and the fastest expansion team ever to a title. They are currently 86-76 (.531), 3rd in the division, 14.0 games back, with a run differential of +9. Recent form has them 6-4 over their last ten, 45-36 at home, 41-40 on the road. On the 8th Day Engine's league-wide percentile ratings, their strongest department is defense (Elite) and their weakest is pitching (Average). Those grades are measured against the other 29 clubs and move as the season does. Every D-backs prediction on CleverScores is published before first pitch and graded afterwards in public, wins and misses alike.
