I think not so much BP HRs as "natural" HRs----the best example since I joined in 2012 is Ortiz--he is a LH hitter in a park that has been a 1 HR park for all four of my on-line years---he typically has the 8 BP HR as a player of his HR power would always have, but he has more "natural" HRs on his card than he would if he played in Coors--because if his home park were Coors, he would hit more BP HRs---taking a player like Ortiz and putting him in GAP or Baltimore--can easily yield 60 HRs.
