As this has truly been a tale of two months for this team, I was curious as to which aspect of the club was most to "blame" for the free fall so I decided to take a peek at the numbers.

For wOBA and wRC+ for hitters, FIP, xFIP, and SIERA for pitchers, and UZR and DRS for defense (entire season) I've used colors to note how each player performed in relation to the league average per Fangraphs. Green has been used for great-to-excellent performance, blue has been used for average-to-above average performance, and red has been used for below average-to-awful performances.

The two most noticeable things are the complete flip flops that Young and Beltran have had, being on both ends of the spectrum already at this point. Gregorius made a marked improvement after a piss poor April but has still been an overall negative at the plate. Drew continues to be a glaring hole in the lineup and neither Petit or Pirela has done anything to supplant him.

The bullpen has continued to be a strength and while the loss of Martin has been a blow, most of the other arms have done an admirable job of picking up the slack.

To state the obvious would be to say that the rotation sorely misses Tanaka. What I find to be most curious is that the much maligned Sabathia has pitched much better than what his surface numbers show but he's having trouble figuring out how to keep the ball in the yard. Eovaldi's command issues continue to limit his ceiling and Adam Warren is bad.

I was thoroughly shocked to see how bad Headley has been at 3B so far. For perspective, the only guys that have been as bad or worse than him in DRS are Elvis Andrus (-7), Torii Hunter (-7), Hanley Ramirez (-10), and Danny Santana (-10). All the innings logged in the field for him and Beltran certainly have not done their starting pitchers any favors and the rest of the defense looks to be leaning more towards the bad end of the spectrum rather than the good end save for Teixeira and McCann.

That being said, I'm not putting too  much stock into these numbers because a lot of the sample sizes are still too small to be a meaningful representation but it is certainly a little discouraging when the hitting and pitching has lacked consistency.
