But see that was before Global warming...Oh wait...Michael K. wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 6:53 pmJust tired of the excuses. And Divish is a part of it. Stop telling me about all the guys that whined when they left because they are mental midgets and freaked out over losing a couple of HRs.
Bret Boone had the following splits in 2001.
Home .323/.355/.580/.935
Away .339/.389/.576/.965
19 dingers at home and 18 on the road
John Olerud
Home .285/.382/.495/.876
Away .319/.420/.451/.870
15 dingers at home and 6 on the road
Ichiro
Home .343/.379/.458/.836
Away .356/.384/.456/.840
5 dingers at home and 3 on the road
All three of those guys hit more homers at home than the road. Grand total of 39 at home and 27 on the road. I'm sick of the whining. Start hitting. I understand that was the best regular season in Mariner history, but why were they able to hit at home similar to how they hit on the road? Did we have some magical powers that blocked the Marine Layer back then?
Didn't these guys hit in Seattle BEFORE they made it more hitter friendly? I didn't spend a ton of time on this and couldn't figure out how to get career splits. BUT, this would make me believe if you are a good major league hitter? You can hit here. Maybe these guys are too mentally fragile or just not real good major league hitters? I'd love to see something over the past ten or twenty years that shows Mariner hitters and their home and away splits. Maybe blaming Seattle is just an excuse for guys that don't hit well for not hitting well?
Haven't we done that a couple of times? Didn't they do that AFTER 2001?Big_Maple wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 7:06 pmThe Giants figured this shit out and brought the fences in as a result.

The Mariners act as though they are the only team that plays at sea level, close to the ocean.
