More Defensive Calculations
On Baseball and the Reds is doing nice work with The Hardball Times defensive numbers, coming up with a way to convert THT's zone ratings to a +/- system. The Probabilistic Model of Range lends a hand. What's nice about this is that it looks like something that can be calculated during the season.

Thanks for the link! This isn't rocket science, but I agree, it's exciting to think we could get a consistent picture of fielding performance throughout the season using this approach. -j
Sounds very interesting, but the link in this article leads to the same page as the 'offense at Wrigley in April' article.
