Is it a chemical or preservative placed in them? Perhaps a combination of the meats? Other franks I've purchased don't seem to do this that I've noticed.

I belive it more of a chemical thing. Beceuase if it was a preservative it will be a lot more plump going on than just Ball Park Franks.

Ingredients
There is no fixed specification for hot dog meat, with pork and beef being the most popular. Less expensive hot dogs typically contain chicken, due to the low cost and availability of mechanically separated chicken, and some pork. Hot dogs are generally regarded as unhealthy insofar as most have high sodium, fat and nitrate content. Contents can also be questionable, with cheaper types of hot dogs having been known to contain snouts, ears and blended organ meat.In recent years, due to changing dietary preferences in the U.S., manufacturers have turned to turkey, chicken, or vegetarian meat substitutes as well as lowering the salt content.
In general, if a manufacturer produces two different hot-dog-type sausages, "wieners" tend to contain pork, and to be the blander of the two, while "franks" tend to be all-beef, and more strongly seasoned. This is particularly true of Oscar Mayer.

They don't plump anymore What's the deal, they don't taste good anymore either. They don't even say they plump when you cook them on the package anymore.
