A’s update 07/2025

Here are the American League rankings for the Athletics through recent data (as of early July 2025):


Offensive Rankings

  • Team Batting Average: .248 – 13th in the AL (Yahoo Sports)
  • Runs Scored: 384 – 18th in the AL
  • Home Runs: 113 – 10th in the AL
  • On-Base %: ~.316 – 16th
  • Slugging %: ~.412 – 9th

Summary: Offense is middle-of-the-pack—batting average hovers around league median, slugging and home runs lean slightly above average.


Pitching Rankings

  • Team ERA: 5.32 – 29th in the AL (Stats Crew)
  • WHIP: ~1.47 – 29th
  • Batting Avg Allowed: .268 – 28th
  • Runs Allowed: Among the worst in the league (30th in HR allowed at 135)

Summary: Pitching is a critical weakness — they rank among the bottom 3–4 teams across core performance metrics.


Conclusion

  • Offense: Middle‑tier; contributes moderately in AVG, run production, with some power upside.
  • Pitching: Struggles significantly; high ERA, WHIP, and runs allowed indicate major holes in the pitching staff.

If you’re looking deeper into specific areas—like starting rotation vs. bullpen splits, individual player performances, or comparisons to other AL teams—I can dig into that too!
