Yup, for a team with so much power Toronto also had the highest OBP as a result, coming in at .340 which is 12 bps higher then the next closest team.
They can also pitch well with the 7th best team WHIP in baseball (2nd among AL playoff teams).
There ability to get on base at a high clip, while also having the pitching to keep things tight by limiting base runners is what makes them so dangerous.
They get all the hype for their offense and power bats but this team is dangerous because they are well rounded offensively and defensively.
