Arizona Diamondbacks

DraftKings Points Per Game: 66.47
Points Per Plate Appearance: 1.77

Paul Goldschmidt plus the second best park factor in the league equals Gucci down to the socks. They've got a 95 wRC+ (which takes park factor into account), so this should show you the value of playing your home games on a launch pad.

Back to Goldschmidt for a second. He played a small role in this ranking. At the break, he has recorded 1,019 DraftKings points. That is enough for 17.6 percent of the entire team's point total for the season. He. Is. Good.

The great thing is that the other guys on the team benefit from how nutso he is. He has 49 runs batted in that weren't himself. That's an additional 98 points on the table for those guys in front of him in the order when they get on base. That's why I've been rostering the Diamondbacks' leadoff hitter so often this year. They're way cheaper than Goldschmidt and probably a good chunk less than A.J. Pollock, but they still benefit from the production waiting behind them.

Side note: I had planned to show this effect through a look at the points the Diamondbacks' leadoff batters had scored this year. However, those misguided hombres have been caught stealing 13 times. There's only one way to lose points as a position player on DraftKings, but they have made sure to take full advantage of that avenue. Arizona's leadoff hitters have been caught stealing more times this year than the New York Mets as a team.

These times caught stealing have lowered their point-per-game output more than a full quarter of a point. Y'all are killing the narrative. Without that, they'd rank fourth in the National League in points per game from a leadoff batter -- despite a .305 wOBA -- but they honestly ruined my vibe. Uncool.
