.186/.317.376 in 63 games for two different teams. I know my ballpark is not ideal for him but I didn't expect him to be THIS bad.

Has anyone had success with him?

Is it time for me to pull the plug on him?

Thanks,
TVF

Your park is not "not ideal" for him, it's bad for him and there are few circumstances I could see using him there.

Thanks Jerry. Joey Bats has been eradicated.

Bautista is a bad fit for your park. He's got a ballpark HR on #6 and Citi field is going to turn 75%of those ballpark homers into outs. Your expensive players should benefit from your ballpark, Joey bats clearly doesn't in this case. If you're not playing in a RH hitting friendly park or in a division/league with a bunch of hitter parks (I highly doubt it with the 2010 ballpark settings) you could probably find a better fit for your squad.

Never had him hit for his cards batting avg. But will get me the hr's. And thats in yankee stadium. Got him in one league, where my division is us cell, and three coors field. Very excited about that possibility but still isnt as good as i thought would be.

On the flip side of bad, in not a good park for him, here he was in Petco...

Here's what he did (or didn't) do for me in Petco:
