It’s not a clean break, but it’s the All-Star break, so with just about 58% of the season in the rear-view mirror, let’s check in with the value that Rick Hahn is getting out of this team.
The good news? As the team’s winning percentage has grown, its surplus value deficit has shrunk. Things are sunnier than when we last checked in on surplus value, at the one-third point of the season.
Still, things aren’t great. It was always going to be hard to get good value out of a team that is is spending big (seventh in MLB).
