Currently 22nd in OBP. 28th in SLG. 26th in OPS.
Leads to a pretty shitty offense overall.

Funny thing is most people were wringing their hands about pitching (and still complain regularly about it).
We're #2 in the AL right now. We were #1 last season, and missed the playoffs because our offense sucked. We probably improved 2 of our worst spots in the lineup, but we were always counting on good or bounce-back years from everyone else, and if the team doesn't start hitting then once again we'll do nothing despite good pitching.
