Q:

How are the recent performances of AL East players impacting their teams′ standings?

I′ve been trying to follow the AL East division closely, but I′m struggling to understand how individual player performances are influencing their teams′ standings. For example, I thought a strong hitter would significantly boost their team′s ranking, but it doesn′t always seem to work out that way. Can someone explain from a sports-analytics perspective how recent player performances in the AL East are impacting their teams′ standings?

Also, what other factors should be considered when evaluating a team's success beyond just individual hitting statistics?
