Ha ha, ouch!

To be fair, IIRC, Halifax leans toward the pitcher's side of things and, of course, it is in the CL. I think Tasan's leans toward the pitcher's side, too, but in the RL, Shiu's stats will probably be bumped a bit.

Yeah, Halifax was a pitcher's park pretty heavily so. Colorado is pretty close to almost neutral though as far as parks go. Exactly in the middle of FOOL's parks.

To be fair, with park factors considered, Shiu isn't quite as horrible of a hitter last year. With an OPS+ of 101, he was pretty close to average. The concerning thing though when I was looking at him is even on the road, his OBP was still under .300, and his road OPS was only .702. So questionable if that is really above average still.

This will definitely be a fun one to watch to see how he turns out this season!

LOL! Yes THAT award. It was that reason that I dumped his butt. Ah well.

Well he is like an okay catcher. Got 16 HR and a LOT of RBI. He just nowhere matches his ratings.
