As you can see, Wahl, Coyote is being paranoid...again. I only told you you weren't "angsting," as Coyote erroneously claimed, and said nothing about him. He's straight up lied about me on the forum before, as he's lying now, so pay him no mind.
As to Encarnacion, his only having had one opportunity is a bit of a fluke. So, while BP hrs hven't been a factor so far, they most likely will be one. He has BP Hr opportunities on a 2-3, 2-10, 2-11, and 2-12 against righties, so he most likely will lose production through missed Hr opportunities. Craig's ok, but I'm not a big fan of Gonzalez. Either way, Scumby and I agree Encarnacion is not a good fit for you and your park. As I said before, you could use a first baseman less dependent on Bp Hrs for production.
As to the rules about Bp Hrs, which are signified by number signs, here is the SOM official rule on them:
# -- Ballpark home run reading. An additional roll determines whether there is a home run or a flyout. Obviously, the probability varies by ballpark and whether the hitter is lefthanded or righthanded. The original result listed is ignored -- in effect, the result will be determined by "rolling against" the ballpark's home run rating (a random number from 1-20). If the number rolled is equal to or lower than the ballpark's rating for a left- or righthanded hitter, it is a home run.
P.s. It's l.strether and good luck on the rest of your season.
