ESPN only got data for the past 3 years. So I took a look at SS ZR vs. fielding% for 2001~2003. The correlation is stronger, but is still hardly convincing.

Something interesting:

For the past 3 years, the most extreme good fielding%, bad ZR ( In other words, most overrated by fielding%):

1. Derek Jeter
2. Cristian Guzman
3. Tony Womack

Most underrated by fielding%:
1. David Eckstein
2. Edgar Renteria
3. Jose Valentin

These are the players farest from the correlation line.
