Fielding Bible Excerpt

By Tangotiger

JC has an excerpt to The Fielding Bible.

John Dewan does it based on RE24 (run expectancy by the 24 base/out states). In that sense, it is identical to what Fangraphs does on the hitting side with RE24. Otherwise, he follows the same process he did the first time, and is a subset of what MGL does with UZR. (Unless Dewan also handled all the parameters that MGL does.) It may also be somewhat of a subset to what Pinto does.
