    HR derby weather

    Anyone know if the wind is blowing in or out for the derby? And to what field.

    Why would it matter? All guys will be batting with the same conditions.

    My question as well. irrelevant unless there are o/u props for HR totals. I haven't checked the lines yet.

    Do you really expect Morneau to hit his entire or almost all of his HRs to left because it's shorter there dimensions-wise?? It's natural for him to hit to right field as a left hander but many balls does he have to hit there make it that far?? . I think most of the guys will more try to crush balls for the entertainment factor and atmosphere in the stadium.
    Oddsmakers favor the National League to come up with this years Homerun Derby champion. Already juiced at around -130 or -140 (at around 1.73 in decimal odds, prefer decicmals reflects the percentages more easily.
    I can definetly see a NL player winning this year (Stanton, Morneau, Tulo.....), any opinions on that? GL

    Not here to start an argument. Just looking for wind direction and speed.
