Just how bad is ‘bad’ on the Cincinnati Reds offense?

The Cincinnati Reds have slightly improved their offensive standing but remain among baseball's worst-hitting teams. While their team slugging percentage of .397 ranks 21st, their batting average of .230 and on-base percentage of .308 both rank last in MLB, with their wRC+ of 92 placing them ahead of only Colorado. The team's offense is heavily dependent on Elly De La Cruz, Eugenio Suarez, and Sal Stewart, while three other regular players—Ke'Bryan Hayes, TJ Friedl, and Noelvi Marte—rank among the four worst hitters in baseball among those with at least 200 plate appearances.
