I guess what I am trying to say is that if you play half your games somewhere, you need to be able to adjust for hitting there. Its expected that a player should be comfortable and productive in their own ballpark.
I think most hitters do better at home. But some parks (CO, TOR, PHX to name a few) give a boost to offense due to their elevation, air density, dimensions, etc. If we're trying to determine who the best hitter actually is, we should account for that.
