Bad Baserunning cannot happen

Finding flaws on a 93 win team is hard to do, but every team has a weakness or two.

Baserunning has been a problem for the D-backs all season, and StatCast metrics can prove it.

According to Baseball Prospectus’ baserunning runs meric, the D-backs were 25th and the Rockies were second.

The D-backs only hit .254 as a team with RISP this season, compared to the Rockies .285 average, the second-best average in that situation in the NL.

Forget hititng with RISP. The D-backs were the worst team in baseball when it came to advancing on flyballs, and you really do not need stats to prove it.
