MLB's Biggest 2025 Road Hitting Splits originally appeared on Athlon Sports.One-third of the way through the marathon MLB season, it's time for a quick study on who's more likely to succeed when sleeping in their own bed.

If you missed part 1, check out MLB's Biggest 2025 Home Hitting Splits.Without the space or bandwidth to do an all-out research paper, I just needed a single stat to describe an offense.

My nerd-brain went to xwOBA first (shocker), then thought maybe OPS was the answer.

So of course I tested the two for correlation and found that r=.823 significantly weaker than I expected.

Instead of choosing, I wound up adding them together and honestly, after seeing the top six overall in order (LAD, NYY, CHC, ARI, NYM, PHI) it left me satisfied.Roughly sixty games in the regular season, I was curious which offenses performed best on the road compared to at home.BEST ROAD OFFENSES; RAW TOTAL, xwOBA + OPS:Cubs 1.198Yankees 1.162Mariners 1.102D-backs 1.097Dodgers 1.087Tigers 1.076Phillies 1.066Mets 1.056Angels 1.049Nationals 1.035Athletics 1.032Red Sox 1.030Marlins 1.026Brewers 1.023Braves 1.022Reds 1.014Twins 1.008Guardians 1.005Cardinals 0.994Rays 0.991Padres 0.990Royals 0.985Astros 0.968Orioles 0.968Blue Jays 0.960Rangers 0.951Giants 0.944White Sox 0.920Pirates 0.918Rockies 0.849BEST RELATIVE ROAD OFFENSES; HOME - AWAY, xwOBA + OPS:Cubs-0.136Mariners-0.112Angels-0.102Brewers-0.090Guardians-0.049Tigers-0.031Royals-0.030Marlins-0.021Twins-0.004Yankees-0.001Rangers0.003Nationals0.012Reds0.016Braves0.019Phillies0.020Padres0.034D-backs0.042Rays0.043White Sox0.046Athletics0.048Mets0.059Pirates0.071Red Sox0.078Orioles0.091Giants0.097Astros0.109Cardinals0.118Dodgers0.156Blue Jays0.175Rockies0.177LAGHEZZA'S LEAN:Remember, just like playing at home a small handful of elite lineups will produce regardless of venue so in this case don't overreact to the Yankees topping the list.

However, it's worth noting teams like LAA, CLE, MIL, and KC rank in the bottom-10 overall but inside the top 10 away.
