In the past 3-4 years, since they put in a humidor to control the baseballs, homerun numbers are down at Coors. Last year, the Rockies ERA was 4.66, middle of the pack in the NL. So Coors isn't what it used to be. Our pitching is better than people think it is. Just saw a question on Jason Jennings doing better in Houston now that he's out of Coors. Houstin, Cincinati, and Philly are more hitters ballparks than Coors now.

Because it still is. While the effects aren't as extreme as they were originally, it's still a hitting park.

Looking at 2006 park effects, Coors still adds 17% to HR, and 14% to hits. In comparison, in 2001, Coors added 46% to HR, and 27% to hits.

Your logic that Rockies pitchers getting better, leading to league average ERA proves Coors is still a bit of a hitter's park.

Great American Ballpark was the most hitting ballpark of 2006, while Minute Maid and Citizens Bank Park are ranked 8th and 12th, just above average.

Coors still has the 2nd highest park factor.

Cuz of the light air.

But the humidors negate that effect now.

altitude and crappy pitchers

Because of the geography. More home runs have been hit there than in any other ballpark. It's like comapring the Yankees to the Cubs. You say the Yankees are better because they've actually won a World Series in the past century.

In truth, it is no longer a HOMERUN Hitter's Park...it still affords the batter a statistical spike in most offensive categories, making it still a hitter's park...

The Rockies can NO LONGER use the humidor. You can expect the runs scored per game to jump back up to what it used to be. There is no denying, the ball goes further, and pitches break less in Colorado.

whoever said that of jason jenning has never seen his numbers in minute maid park he pitches terrible there.
