Excluding <300K scrubs, here's how teams focused on each hit-type drafted all four hit types. Very interesting to see how the doubles teams didn't draft more triples, but the triples teams did draft a fair amount of doubles

Singles 27.61 4.59 1.22 1.26

I’d love to see a breakdown of most used stadiums per hit group, and home/away splits for those groups as well if it’s possible to get that
6/24/2021 8:07 PM
Maybe we can do Home/Away splits at the end of the season.

06gsp graciously put this together so maybe he'll be up for adding a stadium breakdown, though. I'm also curious about that
