Expanded Fielding Stats
Routine, Even, Likely, Unlikely, Remote and Imp.
What does this mean in the players expanded fielding stats? There's a percentage and a number next to it. Thank you. |

Total guess here, but I suspect they are noting percentage of plays made on balls that were: Routine, 50/50 chance, Likely to be made, Unlinkely to be made, Remote chance of being caught (lunging, jumping, catching over the shoulder after a big run, etc) and Impossible (climbing the wall and snatching one that is basically out, superman lunging for balls that would land 6' infront, or to the side, or behind, most fielders, or the fiedling a ground ball in shallow outfield on your knees and gunning it to first base kind of thing)

I have a first baseman with 35 innings played, four games started, made 24 outs in 24 chances, with 3 double plays.
RF is 6.17, ZR -0,3 and .000 eff. His advanced fielding stats are these: - 0,0% of routine, - 0 likely - 0,0% even - 0 unlikely - 0,0% remote - 1 Imp. Then it shows other columns with: 0,0%, 1, 0,0%, 0, 0 0,0% routine?! We're missing something here. |

but where do these "expanded fielding statistics" come from and what do they purport to tell us? are they derived from some other stat? is there somewhere that explains what we should be looking for, such as what are good/bad numbers for each position, etc?
i'm obviously behind the times or am missing something in plain sight. i've never heard of these expanded fielding stats and don't want to just guess or speculate about what they mean. i can't find anything about them in the manual. |

Foreign display to me, too, but I’m fairly certain a ball thrown to the 1B for an out is not among the numbers and not a ‘fielding’ difficulty chance, regardless if the word chances is used or not. What’s your CF or SS look like?

This seemingly unknown new stat has been introduced prominently into the game ("expanded defensive statistics"). This is something that should/must be explained in the manual. It's not. I'm hoping OOTP will explain it here, then update the manual to explain these new stats in the glossary or wherever. Thank you. |

Here is a link to a fangraph.com page explaining the stat:

You can find them under each player's Fielding Stats (View >> Expanded).
