I believe pitching/defense are 80-90% but this stat has me rethinking my theory.
The team that has given up the fewest runs in the National League this year is..........PITTSBURGH.
Ok, they're actually tied with the Mets and three other teams are within three runs, but still. How do you give up the fewest runs in the league and still manage to be 18 under .500? The obvious answer is the Pirates are terrible offensively. They've scored only 319. Believe it or not, that isn't the worst in baseball as the White Sox have scored only 318.
And the incredibly rotten Rockies only have 328 despite getting to play half their games in Coors Field.
