Should this team be slugging better?

Wrigley 63, in a very hitter friendly league, with 4 other LH power parks and at least 5 other HR parks for LH & RH bats. IIRC only 2 small ball parks.

League avg for SLG is .527, I'm .477, and second worst in terms of slugging in the league. My BA and OBP are more than decent enough.

Outside of long lines at grocery stores and heavy traffic this really gets under my skin.

Seems about normal for this team, to me. Too many weak bats like Rizzuto, Ventura, Wright. Giles is always an under achiever for me too. Plus your singles hitters Delahanty, Gwynn and Dandridge aren't guys that will put up big slugger numbers for you. You are in trouble when Haller is your HR leader. :shock:

Porter, Morgan, Ven tura,Giles and Belle are usually disappointing for me. Dandridge is a great leadoff hitter vs. LH, but will never put up much in slugging numbers.

Statistically, Delahanty and Rizzuto are dragging down the team slugging pct.

I also find Delahanty's 8.21M card to perform better for avg/obp/slug, as long as you don't need him for CF...more 2B/3B, not big HR hitter, of course
