Rtot (fielding runs above average) - 1974

BOS: 46.1
BAL: 43.6
OAK: 38.1
CLE: 37.0
NYY: 21.7
MIL: 18.8

(every other team is a negative number)

If the defensive model is not flawed in OOTP (though it may be), we would expect to see lower team ERA or R/G for OAK and BAL. But I'm not seeing it when I sim. Top-notch pitching staffs + top-notch defense, as I've said before, does not "translate" adequately into the OOTP world.
