He's a very good pitch framer
But not nearly as good at preventing wild pitches and passed balls
Those are two separate skills
OOTP blends them

I'm specifically talking about a pitch framing stat, which is what Argonaut asked for in the post I replied to. There's no way to quantify pitch framing in the game in a statistical sense when there are no pitch locations in the game. That's the point I'm trying to make.
As Argonaut said, and, I believe, showed with a study, this absolutely has an effect on the results of the game, if it has an effect that can be measured, it can be reflected in a stat
