--- Quote from: Javy on January 30, 2006, 03:56:29 PM ---He's been declining every year since 2000.  Last year he still had good offensive numbers as a C though, but now he's moving to the one of the worst hitters park in all of baseball.  His steady decline+moving to the worst hitters park= not so good news for the Padres

Right handed batters are not as effected in Petco Park.

You sure?  I remember reading that it's the worst park for RH batters.

Im a mets fan, Kain you guys made a big pick up.  You going to have piazza bat clean up.  He'll make a good 6th hole hitter but he is in one of the worst hitting ball parks in baseball with vinny castillo protecting him and piazza himself is on a serious decline.  And with catchers, there decline is a lot faster then other ball players.

--- Quote ---Which parks have the lowest homer rates? Petco Park is the easy one, and it is the worst from both sides of the plate. For lefties, Petco is followed by Kauffman Stadiun (Kansas City), SBC Park (San Francisco), and Fenway Park (Boston). From the right side of the plate, Kauffman and SBC Park are again tough, along with Jacobs Field (Cleveland), Tropicana Field (Tampa), and Shea Stadium (Mets). Fenway Park and Jacobs Field are not generally thought of as tough hitters' parks, but at least for homers there are significant platoon splits. Also, among the best pitcher's parks for home runs is Washington's new home at RFK Stadium. While there is not a full year of data yet, this park is proving to be one of the most difficult home run parks in baseball.

That's why they picked up some right handed batters.
