A Saber-Slanted Baseball Community

Jeremy Greenhouse at TBA has an excellent, comprehensive break down of home run effects in the various MLB ballparks in one, awesome post. It looks at how the parks effect specific types of hitters and in what ways, rather than a sweeping generalization of the number of home runs hit in a park. As he says, "My idea is that not all park effects are uniform. For example, I believe that Mike Lowell and Dustin Pedroia are largely aided by the Green Monster, to a greater extent than most hitters and Johnny Damon's home run production has been largely influenced by the short porch in Yankee Stadium's right field." There is no baseline established (at least in part 1), and doesn't appear to me to be adjusted for the hitters who hit those home runs (something I assume can skew the data), but it is none the less interesting and eye-opening. I feel like the study of more specific effects like this are the future of park adjustments; an area of data analysis that I think is good but can always use improvement. Some of the parks have some seriously fascinating effects. I wish I was good enough at taking in numbers at first glance to stop my head from spinning and spout off more observations. Any thoughts?
