Well, for a long time there was really no defensive stat you could even look at for minor league guys outside of fielding percentage. Well over at minorleaguesplits.com they came up with a way to create a defensive stat system. Anyways, I just thought I would give some guys a heads up, becuase personally I really enjoy it so far. They dont have a system yet for pitchers, catchers or first basemen, but everyone else should be available.
Anyways, he is a little sample of some Reds prospects.
IP=innings played, Pl=plays made, +/- plays made above average, /150=plays made above average per 150 games
