Teams do play better at home, but if you're a crappy team, it won't make you that much better.
What's a crappy team? .400 winning percentage and below? .350? That's an interesting claim you're making, but you need to back it up. It could just as well be that the relative benefit for crappy teams playing at home as opposed to the road is even more pronounced than it is for good teams-- that makes sense to me as well. The only way to get a better idea of how this shakes out is to look at how crappy teams have done historically at home vs. on the road, and compare that to how non-crappy teams have done at home vs. on the road.
