One goal allowed by the Timbers when Andres Flores is on the field. Plus/Minus is a great tool for getting a snapshot of a player or group of players in fast-paced sports like basketball. But given the rotation (see below) the Timbers are using, it’s somewhat interesting that it’s Andres Flores is not only one of the five players who have a positive plus/minus, but leads the team with a plus/minus of +5.

Four Timbers have plus/minus of -5 or worse. This is the problem a very lopsided result creates when you have a small sample size.
