As I mentioned in the paragraphs above, both Abreu and Frazier victimized the same team on multiple occasions. Here are the teams they took deep the most.
Jose Abreu:
Cleveland Indians: 5 times
Detroit Tigers: 4 times
Tampa Bay Rays: 3 times
5 teams tied with 2 times
Todd Frazier:
Pittsburgh Pirates: 5 times
Atlanta Braves: 4 times
Detroit Tigers: 4 times
4 teams tied with 2 times
The interesting part is the most victimized team is a divisional opponent. Cleveland and Pittsburgh play the White Sox and Reds a lot, therefore both Abreu and Frazier get more opportunities to have success versus those teams.
In conclusion of this initial study, I will add my observations. First, I think it might make sense to add a variable where I multiply a variable less than one or more than one. It would be in the case when a home run is in the first or second inning (less than one). Assuming the game was very late, or a game winner, the variable would be multiplied into the formula. This would help evaluate a home run in a more reasonable way.
All things considered, this is a solid case study of the home run decimal. Expect more studies with evaluations of hitters who do not have power, but this is a good start. While there will be more HRD studies to come, keep in mind this formula may change before I perform it. Stick around, more to come.
