this might seriously be the stupidest [expletive] i've ever read in my life

 

Chemistry will swing the AL East by three games, ensuring that the title returns to Tampa for the first time since 2010. The Rays benefit from a bolstered pen led by vet Grant Balfour and by demographics worth 1.7 wins. The Red Sox bonded in historic fashion last year (beards!), but the 2014 squad has below-average chemistry after the loss of three starters. Still, Boston is tighter than the Yanks, who have the AL's worst chemistry. And that's without A-Rod in the clubhouse.

 

The Cardinals will repeat as Central champs despite the third-worst chemistry in MLB. Problem 1: A lack of diversity in the pitching staff. Problem 2: Most of the Demographic subgroups that the Cards do have include an isolated player, leading to an Isolation factor of minus-1.4 wins, tied for 27th in the league.

I think the Cardinals stellar Productive Out Percentage should help balance out their negative Chemistry Rating.

too many white pitchers is bad for chemistry?

See I told you our chemistry equation works, we said the Cubs have the worst chemistry in baseball and they finished in last.
