The park factors for Portland in 2012 (http://minorleaguece...com/parkfactors) show:

PF(runs) = 112 (highest in league)
PF(hits) = 106 (highest in league)
PF(doubles) = 119 (highest in league)
PF(home runs) = 105 (fifth highest in league)

And what do you consider cold weather?

I must say I had no idea park factors for the minor leagues were being kept. I thank you for the link.

Cold weather: all the damn Sea Dogs games I went to and froze my man boobs off at this past year.

Portland has traditionally been a pretty fair ballpark.

It appears the park factor you provided is for 2011 when Bogaerts was in Single-A.

Yeah, I did a Google search for "2012 minor league park factors." That url was the first return and I missed seeing it was for 2011. Incidentally, your source uses runs created instead of runs and I have no idea how much difference that causes.
