I′ve been a huge fan of the AL East teams for years, and I′ve noticed that their recent slumps have really affected their performance. For example, my favorite team has been struggling to win games despite having a strong lineup on paper. This got me thinking about how these slumps are influencing team strategies from a sports-analytics perspective. Are teams now relying more on advanced metrics to make decisions? How are they adjusting their lineups or pitching rotations in response to these downturns? Any insights would be appreciated!
