Baffled - looking for answers from Yankee Stadium experts

[ShakeyBoomer]

For the life of me, I can not understand how this team is second to last in the league in runs in Yankee Stadium. Can those with positive experience there please chime in with thoughts. Thanks...

Your lack of table setters appears to be the biggest failing in your lineup.

My 2 pennies...

With Yankee stadium being a 1-18 HR park, you really need guys who are maxed out with BPHR's, both ways would be nice. (if they are not being platooned)

I wouldn't consider Jay a good Yankee stadium park guy. I'm not sold on Heyward as well.

These 2 guys, vs. RH pitching are bringing down your team SLG.

And OB at the top of your lineup is missing.

the OBP is obvious...

you are on pace for 235 HR....that should score a lot of runs

[ShakeyBoomer]

How is OBP a problem when Heyward is 50 reaches vs RH pitching and Jay is 39 + few dp's at the top of my lineup?

My lineup vs. RH pitching:

Heyward (50 non-bp Reaches)
Jay (39 non-bp reaches)
Beltre (39 non-bp reaches)
McCann
Konerko
Rasmus
Espinosa
Janish

Maybe Jay is just getting bad rolls. According to the team stats, your team's OBP is a little below the league average.

This probably will not make a huge difference but try setting some guys, like Jay, to don't steal. Looks like a lot of runners are getting thrown out or picked off.

Boomer, we have an unwritten rule that we don't ask for help with Tour teams, and unless I'm mistaken, this is one. Sorry.

[ShakeyBoomer]

Im not asking for help. Im asking for opinions as to why its gone wrong. it's much too far into the season to start serial dropping and making moves.

[durantjerry]

You post bp-reaches like it's a factor in your team performance. What matters it what is actually happening and those players are not reaching base to the extent you expect, which is the factor that matters in your underperformance.

I wonder what your offense's gidp stats are. I'm guessing your team has hit into a ton of them. Add up the gb(a) chances of your 2-3-4 hitters and you'll suss my drift.
