So it's ultimately not 2 runs a game. But there's so much wrong. There are 27 outs/game, and their average at bats are 32.5. You just don't get guys hitting or walking enough. So plate discipline appears to be an issue. Runs and RBIs are pretty pathetic too. To me I think it's on everyone - management, coaches, players, all.

I think scoring runs is the problem. They are 29th in runs scored in a 30 team league. They move up to 28th in runs/game.
