That was a boring game to watch. Not a lot of fight in the team right now.

I know some here will have a shit fit but the Royals really need to acquire some type of starting pitching via FA or trade before next year. They can't roll this shit out again.

Fans went from 1985 to 2014, of course we can wait. I've been catching the games on FS1 and lately, they look pretty lethargic. I don't know how you just fix the pitching. The chances of making another trade that fills the bullpen are slim and none. The big money teams are starting to dominate the league again.

Though that setup would give you a valley effect with heavy air, from the way you describe it. |

It's got to to be something like a lot of foul territory or given the stadium configuration, prevailing wind patterns in the summer are blowing in. |

A hot and humid day in Colorado (which almost never exists) would be the absolute best environment for hitting HRs. For some reason many ppl think humid air weighs the ball down, but thats simply untrue. It just FEELS heavier to us. https://science.howstuffworks.com/na...an-dry-air.htm |
humid would maybe give you more sweat to rub on the ball though

Humid and cold (if it’s due to a marine layer) seems to be a common reason balls don’t travel well.
The parks in San Francisco and the current Angels stadium have all had marine layers that suppress flight of flyballs. With the way Frawley is situated, just off the Delaware river and with the Atlantic pretty close to boot, Id guess that is probably the biggest factor. The whole “stadium in a valley” thing is stuck in my craw now. I’d had one of the minor league parks described to me that way once ... might have been High Desert, the old A-ball stadium (though it’s elevated above sea level and the ball flys out, so the opposite of Wilmington). I’m playing softball right now with a guy who played in the Carolina League. I’ll pick his brain on it at this week’s game. |
