Recording Fielder Positioning

By Tangotiger, 10:11 AM

This is my annual complaint. Don’t want to miss it.

STATS, BIS, MLB.com, please, record where the fielders are playing. If the NHL, with half the revenues of MLB, can employ at least a half-dozen scorers, MLB can afford to hire one extra guy to see where everyone is playing. And while you’re at it, give him a stopwatch.
