Why the Engine Rates Flushing This Way

8th Day Engine · Rating rationale

The 8th Day Engine ranks Flushing in the bottom half of MLB because the club owns a negative run differential (-44), one of the weakest defensive profiles in baseball and an offence that struggles to score. A below-average bullpen is what stops the overall grade falling further. Their staff ERA of 4.12 ranks 16th in MLB, and they score 4.19 runs per game (22nd).
