    Six of the teams that made the playoffs last year (Royals, A's, Orioles, Pirates, Dodgers and Cardinals) were ranked in the top 10 on FanGraphs Defensive Runs Saved (DRS). Kansas City had 3 outfielders (Gordon, Cain and Dyson) individually ranked in the top 10 is DRS. From Teams stats on DRS, Royals (40), Tigers (-65) and the Twins (-73). A different way of looking at this is that all of Miguel Cabrera's offense (109 RBI) was essentially neutralized by the Royals defense. I don't see any team in the division matching K.C.'s defense and they should be one of the contenders just because of that. I enjoyed watching KC last year and wish the Twins, especially in the outfield, were modeled after the Royals outfield. They also remind me alot like the 80's Cardinals outfield of Coleman and McGee.

    One item that is missing in this evaluation is the importance of the second baseman in converting DP. If this is the case, an above average 2B should elevate a SS DP metrics and conversely. Can you test for this?
