The Fielding Bible IV: Break-Through Analysis of Major League Baseball Defense by Team and Player
Three years ago, the authors of The Fielding Bible released research strongly advocating for the increased usage of shift defenses across baseball. Since then, defensive shifting in Major League Baseball has increased over 500 percent and has shown no sign of slowing down! What are the next frontiers for fielding analysis? Find out here.
From the Defensive Runs Saved system to the latest shift research, The Fielding Bible has consistently led the way in baseball analytics:
· Who are the best fielders in the major leagues, not just on highlight-worthy plays but day-in, day-out, over the course of the season?
· How reliable are defensive metrics from year to year?
· Which players have deserved their Gold Gloves and which ones maybe not-so-much?
THE FIELDING BIBLE VOLUME IV contains the latest defensive research, analytics, and data from Baseball Info Solutions. Much of that research had previously been reserved exclusively for MLB teams, and it is all updated with all the defensive stats through the end of the 2014 season.
Definitive Evidence on the Impact of Defensive Shifts: Examines the evolution of defensive shifting in baseball with analysis of various splits, team defensive alignments, and potential drawbacks.
Strike Zone Plus/Minus: A comprehensive system to measure the run value of pitch framing, including unique variables such as pitch command to distribute credit not only to catchers but also to pitchers, batters, and umpires.
Expected Stolen Base Success: Predicts the success rate of a runner's stolen base attempts against a specific pitcher-catcher battery, even if he has never run against them in the majors.
Defensive Scouting Reports: video analysis of the fielding abilities of more than 270 players based on the observations of BIS Video Scouts.
The Fielding Jones by Bill James: the first 25 chapters of the latest insight and research from Bill James.
Updated: Defensive Runs Saved, Range & Positioning, Good Plays/Misplays, Bunts, Double Plays, Outfielder Arms, and Pitcher and Catcher Defense ratings.
Plus: Unique new studies demonstrating the latest fielding data from Baseball Info Solutions.
