UZR, 2007, complete list

Here you go, courtesy of MGL.

expOuts: number of outs made by an average fielder, given this fielder’s
- ball in play distribution (location, trajectory, hardness of hit)
- park
- pitcher’s GB/FB tendency
- runners on base and outs in inning

G: expOuts divided by average number of expOuts per game for that position.  For example, the average LF makes 2 outs per game.  If Manny has 86 expOuts, then he’s got around 43 “games’.
