Via BP’s Adjusted Standings, the Phillies finished the regular season 5th in wins, 3rd in first order wins, 5th in second order wins, and 9th in third order wins. W1 uses runs scored/against, W2 adjusts for offensive and defensive components (i.e. how many runs should this team have scored, based on their peripheral stats), and W3 adjusts for components and strength of schedule. Here are the teams that finished ahead of the Phillies in each:
Wins: Angels, Rays, Cubs, Red Sox
W1: Cubs, Red Sox
