I think the park can be an advantage and its just been terrible roster construction in recent years (and a Figgins implosion)
It also seems as if Z is bringing in pieces that can succeed in the park. Ackley, Pineda, Smoak, Hultzen, Vargas, Seager, Ryan are all good fits for the park with their swings. These guys, along with Felix, are the core.
They've got a ton of holes, but its bad timing to start building the park away from your advantage. You'd likely see the hitting get slightly better and the pitching a lot worse.
I think Z needs to target hitters through trade primarilly. Pineda for example could likely bring back a young MLB proven bat that fits the park. I wish we would have talked to the Yankees about Felix pre-season, but thats no longer an option at this point.
