Something seems off with fielding upgrades.

Looking at the update on the website their are two players who only had their fielding upgraded and had no changes to any other attribute

68 Overall Michael Siani (CF) - Got a +27 to his fielding taking him from a 67 to a 94 fielder at CF
67 Overall Joey Gallo (1B) - Got a +8 to his fielding taking him from a 68 to a 76 fielder at 1B

Both players got a +1 to their overalls for those increases. That just seems like something is off. I am not arguing about what their overalls should or shouldn't be, but that the fact that a +8 fielding at 1B gets you the same net gain as a +27 fielding gets you at CF seems squirrely .

Joey Gallo who hasn't played alot this year should've gotten a downgrade for his fielding not an upgrade and the Siani's fielding went too high so SDS definitely messed up there

I beg to differ. Among CF

2nd in Def WAR
2nd in Outs above Average
1st in UZR per 150 games
2nd in UZR
1st in range runs above average
2nd in defensive Runs saved

Most of the categories he came in 2nd to Jacob Young who is a 96 fielder in game.

And remember that fielding is just that, it does not take into account Arm Strength or Accuracy.

Very true but Gallo's fielding going up is just ridiculous
