I only remembered this because I am the Cubs and just did an inaugural draft. I drafted good LH SP and good LH power bats. Am I interpreting the HR park factors backwards, or is this just not true to life then?
I'd say the homerun factors are backwards. The right center game at Wrigley is extremely short as is dead center field. Yet the Center-right field gap is a good 400 feet. One of the reasons there hasn't been a ton of plus 30 homerun lefties at Wrigley.
