Hi all,

I'm still getting the hang of stadium selection. Came across an interesting situation. For a theme league, I'm created a staff of pitchers who excel at preventing walks, but are only so-so with OAV and HR/9. Not sure what stadium best suits their talents. Maybe something that dampens all hits, like Oakland Coliseum?

Yeah, I'd go with some kind of pitchers park like Safeco, Petco, Oakland, etc.

The better your defense, the more offensive your park can be.   I would definitely go with a - on the HR part (unless your offense is geared towards the HR) but you can get away with a + for singles if you have high range at SS and 2b.
