Offense.2010 vs 2017.

I made a comment during the game last night that I like this offense better than the 2010 offense. I knew they had more speed but assumed some other things like they hit better in the clutch. But looking it up this morning I was surprised how similar the teams are offensively. We are only 47 games in so any "projections" are tepid at best but we are pacing better production than that team especially in SB. We have 49 SB to the 93 in a whole season in 2010. And regarding the RISP stat, remember that in 2016 we put up very similar numbers to this season. Overall I think we can just hit and we have a more balanced team. We have different types of hitters. That is in stark contrast to the 2006 era team. We loathed their clutch inability back then! Anyway hitters get hot and cold and some of ours are just coming around after a cold April so I think what we are doing sustainable. Anyway have a look.
