I’m not sure it’s a slam dunk to say Helton was superior to Baines over a career. From a batting perspective, Baines had more hits, home runs and RBI so at least there’s an argument that would say Baines was as good or better than Helton. Plus Helton’s numbers are at least somewhat bloated by playing at Coors Field.
I’m not suggesting I don’t like Helton. I’m just not quite sure why there is so much shade being thrown at Baines. It’s not like he was Mario Mendoza. Nearly 2,900 hits and over 1,600 RBI are pretty solid numbers. Last edited by trambo; 12-26-2018 at 03:55 AM. |

If a ballpark is known to be tough to hit in, wouldn't it be fair to say that all pitchers' records would be skewed? At some point, we have to accept the fact the every ballplayer has some advantages and disadvantages based on his home park.
