Team Defense in the NL, Season to Date
0 Comments Published by Colin Wyers on Sunday, June 8, 2008 at 1:14 AM.I've been away for a while, mostly working on stuff for GROTA. I do a lot of stuff with Zone Rating in a post there recently, mostly having to do with how the Cubs line up defensively. But to get there, I had to figure out +/- ratings for every player in the NL. Funny how that works out, huh. You can find that data on EditGrid, as usual.
But, as an added bonus, here are the totals by team for everyone in the NL:
STL | 32.93151 |
ATL | 17.72968 |
SD | 16.24524 |
HOU | 14.94331 |
LAN | 13.56041 |
PHI | 9.173859 |
CHN | 6.625689 |
WAS | 1.453572 |
NYN | -1.26417 |
MIL | -3.81383 |
ARI | -5.69194 |
COL | -8.97945 |
CIN | -10.5495 |
SF | -20.3379 |
FLA | -30.6143 |
PIT | -31.4122 |
If you're wondering where St. Louis' out-of-nowhere pitching performance has come from, well, there you go. The Brewers really are an upgraded team on defense. The Reds are not. I'll confess I find the Marlins surprising, given that Hanley Ramirez picked this season to start being an average defensive shortstop. (We'll see how long that lasts, won't we.)
