2056 - Defensive Plays Above Average

[RonCo]

As with the BBA data...here's out GBC info on Plays Above Average. I take this data by scrubbing through the game logs and tallying every ball in play, what zone it's in, and whether it got turned into an out or not. The metric is vs. League average...

And ... again with the small sample size warning right now.

Ron is it by design of the stats or just coincidence that there are 4 positives and 4 negatives in each column?

Coincidence...though the metric is based on league average, so you would expect the values to center around 0.

Hey, at least we've got fans.

I need to check the game logs to see when I moved my absolute butcher of a CF to 1B. (ROY winner Irfan Umayr - https://statsplus.net/brewster/player/5 ... ge=ratings ).. I suspect that's what caused the Hammers to move up in the defensive 'standings'.

Using ST in a vague hope to get him up to average at the position, but...
