You can get summary stats for whole groups of players.
Most of the big power hitters are backspin moonshot HR hitting types with a 40 degree launch angle and a 102 mph speed...the resulting distances are long and the shots have a high arc.  But most hitters only hit HRs when they hit them really hard because they don't have the uppercut swing.
RCF at Safeco is 390 feet. If you adjust down from COlorado distances to Safeco distances I find at least three HRs that probably wouldn't be HRs (that's conducting a -7% down from Coors to regular and then another -4% down from average park to Safeco...although you might be right that I'm overdoing it a bit on Safeco for left handed topspin hitters...the topspin thing might protect him a bit).
