360 down the lines and a 30-foot wall 420 feet away. I think my pitching staff would all love to come play for you.

Some notes on the changes

Denver: More of a hitter's park.
Hartford: Now more of a pitcher's park, especially for RH batters.
Miami: Nearly the same; slightly more of a hitter's park
Sheltown: Less friendly to hitters by a fair margin.
SoCal*: Load up on LH batters when playing in Los Angeles
Philadelphia: Went from a bandbox to a cavern.
Sioux City: Almost identical to NY. Big gaps & ball stays in yard ... a lot.
Toronto: Nearly the same; slightly more of a pitcher's park.
Washington: Dramatic change to a pitcher's park.

* Formerly Atlanta of the USBL

Perfect, that's what I was hoping for.

Interesting stadium decisions!

[ajalves]

IMO next time this should cost some serious $$

[Uuaww]

absolutely agree, but everyone should get 1 freebie to change their team when they first join.

[Cnasty]

Dude wins a championship and becomes Steinbrenner.

How much does it take to move fences?

[ajalves]

all im saying is guys could easily change their fences to suit the team they have, which isnt all that fair. A guy "messes up" his draft annually and doesnt get any good pitching shouldnt be allowed to push the fences back without a cost.

Im saying in the future

[Cnasty]

I understand what you are saying but it happens every single year in the MLB....I think?

Adding more seats I think is more cash then modifying your fences.

Teams adjust their stadiums to accommodate how the park plays.

I will diagree with the fences adjusting yearly thing. I mean it happens.

Took the mets 5ish years to adjust citi field and took the Tigers several years as well

Im just saying there should be a cost

[Uuaww]

corey arguing ootp... im calling it. he stays the whole season.

[Cnasty]

I said I agree with charging but not a large cost.

Also what year are we in? We haven't made ballpark adjustments like this since we started, no?

So it would be on par with the MLB and reality.
