"...the seat design is more spread out over time..."

Although I haven't been to new Yankee Stadium I'm pretty sure the seat coordinates don't change with time (after construction).

Anyway, it's hard to know what has a bigger impact on the home run rate of RF the wind or the shorter distance from home plate, thanks hit tracker.

A couple extra feet of wind, a couple feet less outfield (tricky Yankees shortened fences but not at the marked points) and that could boost things. We'll know more this summer, I suspect.
