There is an old saying that says, “That we all are Creatures of Habit.” That certainly holds true for baseball players and teams. Below, I am going to list team trends, good and bad, for all MLB teams in the first half of the season. The results that we are going with must be 75 percent or better to qualify for this list. Only Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Milwaukee didn't make the list. All of these trends are from games through July 9th. We expect that the trends we report in this study will continue to be solid in the second half of the season.
