2058 - Defensive Plays Above Average

[RonCo]

Since we're talking batted balls, I thought it might be valuable to remind folks about OOTP pitchers' GB/FB rating: http://montybrewster.net/forums/viewtop ... 72#p258472

[CTBrewCrew]

Dang it…. Gotta change my scrape

[Trebro]

Having an above-average defense hasn't helped the way I'd hoped for. Still can't seem to figure out how to construct a team around here to save my life.

HUGE improvement has to be finally getting McNeill and Walton on the field together for an extended period.

[CTBrewCrew]

Jeeeze does Brooklyn just have cardboard cutouts of players on defense?

[RonCo]

End of 2058 ... the depth of Brooklyn's difficulty seems to have warped the middle.

What’s weird is I don’t feel my team is all that great defensively other than CF and C. Everyone else is very average.

Clearly the infield is better than that. Issam was +8.4 ZR and Vera +4.1.

I guess I was going off of more average (for me anyway) concerning their ratings. Isam’s range fell to nine (still good), but Vera is a 5 range.

I’ve just had much better fielding teams that were never this high up the rankings. General fall in defense overall, I suppose.

We’re aging, so it won’t be long for me to fall way back as I don’t have the guys in the minors to fill shoes.

I’d like to take credit for that wily dad pun, but it was purely accidental.

[mragland]

Ugh. Just 6th best in the BBA. They''ll kick us out of the Pacific soon at this rate.

[JimBob2232]

im pretty happy in the middle here.

[Krathan]

I went back at looked at last year’s data. My team defense was actually quite a bit better this year. I’m not sure why my OF defense, specifically flyballs, dropped off so much through the season though.

[lordtoffee]

Very interesting data set.

[shoeless.db]

Ugh. Just 6th best in the BBA. They''ll kick us out of the Pacific soon at this rate.

Six Pacific teams in the top nine is crazy.

[CTBrewCrew]

Went offense first in corner OF over D and my starting CF was hurt so u see that played out.

[CTBrewCrew]

Ill update the viz by weeks end
