Probabilistic Model of Range, Team Positions
Like Bill James did with defensive win shares, I'm working top down. I started with overall team range, looking at DER compared to predicted DER. Now, I'm breaking each team down by position, so you'll be able to see where each organization has a weakness in range. There are 30 charts below, one for each team:

Yankees Fielding by Position
It's pretty obvious from this just how bad the Yankees shortstops were this year. Can't wait to break it down by players to see just how bad Jeter is. I was also surprised that the Dodger shortstops were on the negative side. It looks like Bret Boone's Gold Glove was not based on his range. The Cardinals had four Gold Glove winners, but their chart makes me wonder why.
I'm sure as we study these charts more questions will be raised about certain players. Enjoy studying these, and feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.
