Re: 1990 Reds offense
693 runs in 2008 would've put us 13th in the NL. In 1990 it put us 5th. The difference in league-wide offensive production in 1990 vs 2008 is pretty stark. The average NL team scored 735 runs in 2008 compared to just 680 in in 1990.
Code:
Total '90 rank '08 rank
Runs 693 5th 13th
AVG .265 1st 5th
OBP .322 4th 13th
SLG .399 3rd 13th
OPS .721 3rd 13th
