Yup. Having an understanding that 2/3 of ALL American League wins over the last 5-10 years come when a team scores 5 runs or more, the easy answer is just to score 5 runs.
DET
2011 95 Wins 62-17 .784 WPCT 65.3% of wins 48.8% of games 5 runs
2012 88 Wins 63-13 .829 WPCT 71.6% of wins 46.9% of games 5 runs
2013 93 Wins 69-11 .863 WPCT 74.2% of wins 49.4% od games 5 runs
3 year 276 Wins 194-41 .826 WPCT 70.3% of wins 48.4% of games 5 runs
2014 66 Wins 45-6 .882 WPCT 68.2% of wins 41.8% of games
Assuming DET scored 5 runs at 48.4% this year, the increase in wins would be 7 wins. Or, they should have 72 wins.
Also, when they started 27-12, they were 18-1 when scoring 5 runs. That was still 66.7% of the wins, but 48.7% of the games.
Since then, DET has 41 Wins 27-5 65.9% of wins, but 38.6% of games 5 runs
Going to speed players took away OBP and killed the team's ability to consistently score 5 runs.
