They’re reeruns. Statcast tells us how many HR a player *should* have based on batted ball data. Since Salvy plays in a cavernous park, he should have 49.4 instead of 46. In fact, here’s the leaderboard in most screwjobs of HR.
Notice a pattern?
3. Soler -7.1
5. Beni -6.3
8. Santana -4.9
14. Dozier -4.2
18. Salvy -3.4
