I guess I really do not know what your expectations are per Clemente. He is not likely to rank higher than number one no matter what.
Sorry for the confusion, that's my fault.
The question I should have asked is:
If you are ranked as #1, how then do other Right Fielders have the same or better, defensive ratings that the #1 player?
This confuses me about Bill Mazeroski defensive ratings. He is in the Hall Of Fame because of his defense. He is considered the greatest fielding 2nd baseman of all time. Yet, every year there are better fielding second basemen, that Mazeroski.

I am not saying I am right, I'm just confused on what the defensive ratings actually mean.

Thank you again
