Yeah, for fielding I use ZR and EFF but I also have defensive ratings on (1-5 on very low accuracy).

As far as how I evaluate players, pitchers are mainly FIP and ERA+, batters are mainly OPS, OPS+ and wOBA. However, if I have certain needs (like rangy OFs for a team with flyballers or strong fielding IFs for a team with a lot of groundball guys) I will usually forsake a bat for a glove, it's almost always cheaper that way. So my lineups usually consist of a couple of superstar batters and a ton of cheap veteran FA pickups who are good on the glove. If they can bat too, that's just gravy.

A couple of key evaluation elements to me for pitchers are velocity and GB% (obviously). Velocity will improve over time with 19 out of 20 prospects (according to my countless hours of not conducting research) so if my scout thinks a kid has good stuff and his velocity is at least in the low 90s, I'll pick him up because I can trust his velocity (and thus his stuff) will climb fairly significantly (of course, I have to be convinced that the kid can hang based off of more than just stuff).
