I don't buy that...

A: Small Sample Size
B: I can't find any evidence that the infield at Rogers plays notably slower then elsewhere
C: Even if it does it's likely not a net advantage (in the sense that for every infield hit that someone is able to leg out there is likely a ball that finds an infielder that would have found a gap on a faster field)
D: His OBP at Rogers Centre was actually lower then his season numbers
