Why the Engine Rates Bronx This Way

8th Day Engine · Rating rationale

The 8th Day Engine ranks Bronx in the upper third of MLB because the club owns a positive run differential (+138), one of the weakest defensive profiles in baseball and a below-average bullpen. A strong pitching staff carries the rating, and bullpen is the one department holding them back. Their staff ERA of 3.23 ranks 1st in MLB, and they score 4.59 runs per game (8th).
