The bias is there without a doubt. Funny how it took years to give Nolan Arenado respectable fielding ratings. Now that he’s not a division rival he has 99 fielding haha. When Machado has had better fielding ratings (even in a secondary SS) than Nolan did at 3B. It was laughable for awhile there.
In their defense, the year Arenado had his fielding ratings down, he posted pedestrian UZR and dRS numbers the previous year... he had a downyear defensively. I think people just assume he's a god defensively. Which he usually is. But not that year.
I don’t care what numbers you throw at me. Machado having higher fielding at SS secondary than someone who’s won a gold glove every year he’s played at 3B is insane.
Oh I agree on the secondary thing. I think player's secondary positions should take a larger hit in most cases...
But the fact still remains, Arenado was just slightly above average defensively for a season a couple years ago... He's back though..
Should he be 99? I dunno... Chapman is still the best defensive 3B.. -

They smoked Lindors rating after a bad month of baseball. From 87-81 within a month. Yikes.
I get that he is playing awful but seems as though they have allowed others to stay afloat while sinking Lindor
If someone dropped from 87-81 in a month there should be an investigation. That defies any sort of algorithm on Earth involving baseball stats.
Lindor must have said something bad about the game. Some conspiracy accusation or something.
That's what I'm saying. Aliens bro.

Where’s that guy who said They wouldn’t play favorites with Tatis because Arenado says hello . his the cover boy they always do and his the hottest topic in the MLB right now all aboard the hype train

Cub fan here. San Diego has lots of golds and diamonds because their players have performed well this year and the 2 previous years. There is no conspiracy.
Also, Bryant performs well in every position he plays. But there isn’t an attribute that gives him a boost to overall for versatility. Machado is a premier defender at third. Bryant does not perform at that level at any one position. But don’t worry. If he keeps his 1000+ OPS all year, he will go diamond again.

That's just how secondary things work though. Everyone gets penalized just a few points.
Yes I think Arenado got disrespected, but the secondary argument isn't great because it's just a set downgrade, they don't actually take the time to make different fielding stats for secondary positions.
The point is they are quicker to hit Nolan’s fielding than other players. Not necessarily with fielding but hitting ratings as well. It’s not a set standard for every player is all I’m trying to say.

If anything Tatis' fielding rating is way overrated. 14 errors on the season.

You're a Cubs Fan about like I'm a fan of brussel sprouts. I've seen your posts. Nice try.
Machado goes through more extremes with his defense than the streakiest of batters. This is from an Orioles article in 2018. Machado has had some of the WORST defensive seasons in the history of the game. He's had a few very good ones. So, which player is he?
Manny Machado, who while enjoying his best-ever season at the plate is also en route to the worst defensive season on record. Not just his own worst defensive season—the worst for any player, at any position (positional adjustments aside). Machado has already reached negative-20 DRS this year—that’s the second-worst total at any position in 2018, on a list that also includes Jones and Mancini in the bottom five—and is thus on pace to hit nearly negative-40 for the season. Since 2003, the worst single-season DRS total is negative-33, for Matt Kemp in 2010; only six players have gone even 30 runs under.

It’s crazy how he sacrificed fielding for better hitting . That Barry Bonds pact he made with the gods is something else watch out if they give him some of his fielding back

No it's not, they tend to react more heavily to whatever the big news is. Everyone was talking about how bad Lindor has been. Tatis being on an absolute tear and becoming one of the faces of baseball. Vlad JR crushing home runs. It's catering to the people who follow those types of storylines. Kris Bryant hasn't been hyped by the media yet etc.

There is no real argument for this. They almost never touch fielding unless they need too, then completely change the rules for certain guys. No standard at all. If Ohtani played for SD you can bet every stub they’d be doing everything to change the rules and upgrade him.
Let’s not forget what they did when a Padre hit a unwritten rules HR last year, haven’t seen anyone else get a 99 overall card for hitting a bomb off a position player in a blow out. These guys play favourites. No argument.

Won't get into the whole Bryant thing..
Just want to point out that most people who work at SDS are not Padre fans and aren't from San Diego.
Just from the streams over the years, there's literally one or 2 padre fans... A couple guys from Canada, Nick is a chisox guy. Luis is Yankees.. etc..Must just be a coincidence? Hmmm. What is most who work, and how do you know. Not saying you're wrong, but you are speaking like you know because of some survey of all the folks that have a hand in creating these ratings. And, maybe you do.
Pretty easy to cherry-pick, but it really stands to reason from any sort of logic you would ever want to inject that the players from the town that creates this game are given a better shake..further would make one think it's intentional.
First off, the studio is in San Diego.. that's it... They don't hire locally. They pick developers from all over, and internally from Sony.. secondly, for the last 6 years of MLB the show, they have streamed tournaments with their team, along with content, etc.. they've been very open to who they are, what each does and also what team they cheer for, and where they're from. Almost none of them are from San Diego... Luis (Yankee fan) runs the DD team. There's a twin and Jays fan on that team if I remember too.
The head live content manager is a Marlins fan as well this post might be the dumbest thing on here, clearly OP wasn't here in 19 when ever 3rd card released was a Braves card for a total of some 56 Braves flashback cards.
Where do you guys get this stuff? And if it came right out of the horses's mouths doesn't mean it to be written in stone. Or freaking guy didn't lie to cover up his real allegiance. Or didn't get pressured from his Boss...we'll call him the "live content manager for Regional sale's Boss" that is a SD fan.
Perhaps a conversation like this over beers at Bub's:
Boss - "You know my favorite team from childhood is having a good year. Now I don't necessarily play the game, butta, wouldn't it be cool to be a little more considerate of some of the superstars ratings? I especially like that kid Machado. And don't forget our cover boy. I mean, what would it really hurt? It's just a game and most customers will never notice. Tell you what, let me buy this next round and we'll talk about your evaluation".
Head live Content Manager - "Boss that is an excellent idea. And, I'll have a Chocolate Martini heavy on the whip cream."
So basically no matter what anyone say you will believe that there are other force's at play here.
So imma just leave you to your own devices and thoughts cause there is really no point to this is post other then some tin foil hats
-
Tatis leads the entire majors in errors. Not just for SS, everyone. And no markdown for his fielding.
Or don't they make adjustments to fielding attributes? -

I'm a Cubs Fan (those who don't know Cubs/Cards is one of the biggest rivalries in all of sports) who has Arenado on a fantasy league team.
Every game I root for him to hit homeruns and give up key errors that lead to losses. Wouldn't hurt my feelings if his -3 OAA (most definitive bad defense stat) festers all season. And, btw, Kris Bryant has never had an OAA worse than -3. Bryant is -1 this year.
No offense Cardinal fans..just call 'em the way I see 'em.

That's what I suspected since trying to deal with that on a weekly basis would be a nightmare since fielding isn't just as cut and dried as errors.

No, I'm going to say, just like a good attorney or advocate would..it's all circumstantial and open to opposing viewpoints.
We've established motive - SD company wants to see their team's players do well.
We've established opportunity - SDS developers are the ones that produce these convoluted numbers (don't matter where they hale from or publicly share is their favorite players).
We've established chain of command - They still have to genuflect to the boss's..and the boss's bosses, etc. whims.
And, most importantly, we have the smoking gun...all these biased roster updates.
Do believe in a court of law we could get a conviction. Unless the jury were all from Sorrento Valley. Then you might have some problems.
