Is there SPW data for all teams or for MLB as a whole?
I'd guess (without additional data) that teams with bad bullpens and/or bad offenses have similar percentages.
And it would be interesting to see which problem (bullpen or offense) more directly correlates to SPW percentage.

He didn't get awarded a save.

You can't go to sleep on this team like I did.
Good thing. I don't know if my heart could have taken watching it.

Is that what she’s planning? 😜

If they're going to sell (or trade) veterans who other teams might want, Adam Ottavino should be on that list.

However they're pitching to Will Smith, they should try something else.
