Thanks. I just feel that fielding is the one aspect of my OOTP leagues that I don't really have a feel for. I see Vizquel enter the league and expect him to rack up the Gold Gloves, but 6 or 7 years in he has been unheard of.

This is probably something I still have memories of card and dice play. It was always easy to see the elite fielders when you had check a play on the fielding chart. Harder to do when it's all computer these days.
