I edited the DB and gave all players a default rating at their positions so that all 2bmen have the same defensive rating, all OF's have the same ratings, etc when using base fielding ratings on Career. I found that pitcher BABIP against were basically right on target with their real life stats.

This suggests that right now the spread of fielding ratings in OOTP historicals is too great. On the 100 scale we probably need a spread of no more than 20 points between the best and worst defenders at a position.
