If it makes you feel any better, he's my starting Shortstop and he hasn't made any errors yet, but I totally agree he's been in the running for a gold glove for 2 years at least and should have diamond fielding.

Tbh I think defensive ratings for shortstops in this game are dumb. Baez isn't a 99 fielder, neither is Lindor tbh. No way cover boy should be 94 speed and he's literally the worst defender in baseball this year.
And giving Banks diamond D with his bat is so OP for this time of year.

Baez is a diamond fielder, yet Trevor posted a higher FDef over the past 3 years by a decent amount. 22 Baez to Trevor's 28.9.
@Collin_SDS_PSN I need answers bro. Give him that blue shield he deserves it [censored] it.

Actually Tatis's speed is pretty accurate. Same for Trevor, he's slowed down a bit this season so far.

Put Tatis in a foot race with Acuña and then tell me he deserves 5 higher speed.
Or ohtani and tell me there should be 30+ speed difference.

Baseball Savant sprint speed bro.
Which literally for both this year and last year places him behind Acuña.
Also that doesn't explain the jump from 88 last year for Tatis to 94 this year. His sprint speed hasnt gone up, its actually gone down by .2. They just gotta boost the cover boy and bonus that its a player for SAN DIEGO. Just wish they'd update everything, not just the cover boy.
Acuña is still listed as a CF.

Ahhhh thats a good point. Dude who knows how they rate these attributes lol. I really wish they'd release the algorithm they use, but I also imagine if they did that we would have a lot of incorrect attributes for players.
-
Defensive statistics are still in their infancy in being able to successfully gauge players, especially those that end up playing multiple positions.
(I keep going back to Acuña for my examples because I'm a Braves fan, but im sure theres examples everywhere.)
Acuña grades much better as a corner OF playing primarily in right with his cannon arm, prior to this year he played a lot of innings in CF because we needed him to. This year we added Pache to the roster and he's been touted as mini-Andruw, so Ronald finds his home in RF.
SDS still lists him as CF, Pache is in right when you play the Braves CPU.
Acuña has hit in the lead off spot since early 2019.
He hits 3rd or 4th when you play vs the Braves CPU.
Like its just basic stuff that bother me like that. I know most line ups are kinda fluid but the dude literally leads baseball in lead off HR's over the last 3 years.

Tatis has 9 errors in 15 games.

Tell my why lindor has the same fielding as tatis? Lindor is so disrespected with his defense and speed

Fielding yes, but Lindor is actually not that fast

I mean there are guys rated higher than last years NL MVP so should really tell you everything you need to know.

Lindor's sprint speed is equal to Juan Sotos this year.

He consistently gets 15-20 steals in full seasons (I know steals are not the best way to determine speed). His speed is the same or less than some catchers and first basemen who steal >5 bags a year
