At 1009 Runs scored are the most since 1950 or the last 68 years of baseball.  1950 Red Sox then alll the way back 82 years to the '36 Yankees.  The '99 Indians don't represent a specific type of hitter.  They look to me like a very similar cast to the 2018 Ms offense, though older.  They do seem to represent a roster filled with players totaling 0 200 hit seasons,  so maybe not as diverse.  League OBP alone was .21 higher in '99 than last year so I'm not claiming the Ms have any real shot at clearing 1000 Runs.  4 guys with 90+ BBs?  Not expecting anything like that.  Lofton and Vizquel though?  In front of Alomar and Ramirez?  Dambed if that doesn't sound pretty familiar.
