But, in OOTP, you can see this effect by looking at the zone ratings.
I was expecting to find this as well... but I actually broke out outfielders into LF, CF, RF and found the effect to be about the same for each position. This is kind of the Carl Crawford or Brett Gardner phenomenon- a really good defender playing a non-CF outfield position can save you a boatload of runs just as easily as a really good CF.
