Team OPS Differentials

We are just about at the half way point. In the table below the next to last column, Pred Pct, is based on the equation of

Pct = 1.326*OPSDIFF + .5

That came from a regression of all teams from 2010-14. OPSA it the OPS allowed by the team's pitchers. The teams are ranked by OPSDIFF and the last column is the difference between their actual Pct and their Pred Pct. The 25th highest OPSDIFF since 1914 is .109, so the Dodgers are not too far behind that. The Phillies, with -.125, would have the 20th worst ever.
