At this moment the Yankees lead the Majors in runs scored (120). They have outscored the opposition for the season by 20 runs. That is the 4th best run differential in baseball and second in the AL only to the Red Sox, yet they currently sit in last place. Generally teams that outscore their opposition by 20% for the season don't end up at the bottom of the standings.

What does a stat like that tell us? It's only April.
