Can anyone explain this to me, because I'm struggling to make sense of it. The game has a built in audio recording about Yelich winning a gold glove and to not test his arm either. Yet, you defecate all over his attributes:
68 Fielding
52 Arm Strength (Yeah, wouldn't want to test that)
47 Arm Accuracy
68 ReactionThis literally makes less than no sense.

Old audio. I think his Gold Glove was like 6 years ago.
They really need to re-do 100% of the commentary, I’m tired of the stuff carried over for years already. And how hard is it for them to get Vasgersian to be able to say the name “Gleyber”?
“Up next: ... Torres.” For 2 years now. Come on. -
Yelich was a good left fielder, he won his GG at that position.
He's a below-average right fielder -

He's a below-average right fielderI glanced at his career stats. His struggles mostly came in CF from what it looked like. Either way, a career .990 fielding percentage should not equate to 68 fielding at age 28.

Fielding percentage does not = the fielding stat. Fielding percentage is not a good way to judge how good or bad a player is

I can definitely agree with that, but his stats make him a liability in the field. Not at all the case in real life.

Fangraphs has him at negative defense value the last two years, and LS cards are based on a three year average with the last two years being weighed more.

While we’re here - Byron Buxton, when getting an XBH or HR sometimes gets “swung on by BROX-Ton”

Oh, ok. I suppose that makes sense then. Maybe I'm just a bitter Brewers fan ever since they slighted Ryan Braun's speed. That man would consistently get multiple infield hits in a season, yet I think his highest speed was 68.
I feel you on that speed thing there as a Cubs fan. Rizzo's only got 21 speed. I know hes not the flash running around the bases but hes at least gotta be a 38 lol

Interestingly enough...Yelich will be a left fielder this year...his card should go through the roof defensively

He's a below-average right fielderYup! He is going to be playing LF this season too. I wonder what happens to his ratings after the first roster update.

Also, SDS will fudge the defensive attributes to make the overall what they want with no metrics to back it up. For example: compared Charlie Blackmons and Andrew Mcutchens Silver slugger cards. They are the same type of card based on a single years performance (their words). The defensive metrics on all websites show Blackmon was a better defender than Cutch the year of the cards... they must use there own “eye” test I guess. I have also never seen Yelich throw an inaccurate ball in 2 years watching him.. 47 arm accuracy is only to keep him at a 89.

I completely agree with this statement. I've seen Blackmon make really good plays. He may not be great but he def isn't as bad as they make him out to be. Yelich is a stud! They just do what they want. They have been for years.
