Other than..
Say.for..castillo..

 

[cezero]

in addition to nonstop articles and pressers about Dan, Edgar and the new hitting coach, the amazing veteran leadership, and whatever garbage Jerry peddles and acquires, who isn't excited for article after article about Julio's "new approach" at the plate. come on, you know it's coming.

 

[ulmax]

Ichiro hit in this ballpark. Boone did. Edgar did. Olerud did. Cruz did. Cano did. ARod did. Ibanez did. That punk ass bitch Justin Smoak made it okay to whine about the park being the problem so nearly every failing hitter since has used that as an excuse. Griffey whined about the park too, but it wasn't the batting eye he didn't like, he didn't like that there were no more cheap homeruns like there was in the Kingdome.

I don't blame the ballpark. I blame the quality of players brought in to play in it and the 'yes men' managers and coaches brought in to manage them. From my perspective, ownership has rarely gone after top level hitting talent other than Cano, Beltre, Sexson, Olerud, and Cruz. Five guys in the 25-year history of the park isn't much to brag about.

There are plenty of instances of players leaving here and performing better on new teams, but I think that has more to do with being in a better clubhouse environment and having more protection in the lineup.

Any ballpark can be exploited for the advantage it offers, including T-Mobile, but the advantage has to be identified and exploited. You can't consistently win games in T-Mobile with a lineup full of three-outcome hitters. I think that has been proven ad nauseam. But, Servais had been determined to go that route for the last nine years. Maybe Wilson and Edgar can convince the 2025 team to try a different approach. A Mariner team full of professional, level swinging, line drive hitters, above average speed with smart base running instincts, and defend well, could win a lot of games in T-Mobile. Now all they need to do is replace about 7 guys in the projected 2025 lineup with professional type hitters. Shouldn't be too hard....

Agreed the single season hits record was done at that park

 

[ulmax]

Yeah i..would.put.bohm..at.1st.
Base..

Miranda.at.3b..but it don't matter..
Either way..

Bohm..1st.base.profile..
Could.make him.more.of a.star..

Raley 1b..
Then.bohm..
Dh..
Just.normal.switches.

 

[ulmax]

All right I'm.
A cheap..bastard as well..
It's the only way..

I could figure it out..

 

[PolarVortex]

I mean, what does it say about your team's quality of hitting talent and approach at the plate when the league makes new rules changes to favor hitters by limiting the shift defenders can use at their respective infield position, and the team responds by posting the two lowest team batting averages in the team's history. And not only that but the two highest single single strikeout totals not only in team history but in MLB history. That isn't a ballpark problem, that's a talent and hitting philosophy problem.

 

[ulmax]

Chi.or.minnedota.is more likely.
To want Castillo..
Minnesota for sure..

 

[cezero]

tmobile is ojectively one of the worst ballparks for hitters, not just the M's

I agree 100%, but I also believe having the worst hitting team in the world playing there 81 games a year has a lot to do with the park factor stats.
