10 - Defensive Runs Saved

from Baseball Beyond Batting Average Hosted by Baseball Beyond Batting Avg.

How do we measure defense in baseball? Traditionally, statistics primarily told us about errors committed, but there's much more to fielding than that. Defensive Runs Saved (DRS) is one of the most popular advanced measures of fielding prowess. But how does it work? Mark and Andy break down the stat and look at the best and worst fielders as measured by DRS. You may be surprised at the results. Finally, join in a round of Roll The Stat and beat the hosts at their own game with your newfound expertise.
