August 25, 2015 BP WrigleyvilleThe Road They've Traveled: George Plimpton, DRA Run Values, and the Cubs RotationWith the debut of DRA Run Values coming last Friday—and a detailed explanation coming on Wednesday—BP Wrigleyville's Rian Watt takes a look at how the Cubs rotation stacks up with regards to these components. It's a staff that helped keep the Cubs in contention in the first half as they waited for a young offense to come around and start producing on a consistent basis. Just how good do the advanced stats think the staff has been? Go to BP Wrigleyville and read Rian's piece here.
