Thanks for the update on WV. I was thinking it was neutral so thanks for the confirmation.

I don’t know what the numbers are but from watching games there I’d say it plays slightly as a pitcher’s park.

They’ve only played three games in West Virginia. All of these hitters were hitting before they arrived in WV.

Typically it’s not a hitters park, although it’s not much of a pitcher’s park. It’s pretty neutral.

Tim, some others posting on other sites have asked the question if West Virginia’s park is a hitters park, pitchers park, or standard. I was wondering if the park size is assisting the hitters at all?

Tim,
I’ve been reading your site for awhile, but this is EXACTLY the type of article I hope to find when I pop open the site, 4-5 times a day. Excellent insight and delivery on the Taillon piece and really nice putting what I’ve been thinking are two of the most promising stories this year so far along with it.
It’s a small sample size but the guys who are tearing it up in WV have been really hitting for a few years now in the development leagues and Bell is living up to his capabilities. I think this group of guys will have an impact some day in the bigs.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for a great read!
