Looks like its +/- 30.

or +35/-25


I see + plays over 30 pretty frequently (maybe one per season?).

It's hard to see (-) plays because most people don't play guys who are gonna kill them in the field for 162 games.   I do think that high end for D- type guys average around 20-25 (-) plays

Thanks for all the input.  It sounds a lot worse then I expected.  So it sounds like I might be better off moving my 1B to RF and playing the DH at 1B?  Or does anyone have any other suggestions?

That only works if he's not quite as bad at 1B. He'll have a lot more chances at 1B but I do think he'll field better. Still, you'd probably get 60 errors and 25-30 minus plays at 1B, so it might depend on whether your 1B can competently play RF or not. I've played my 1B in RF before and they've been mostly OK (10-12 errors and a few minus plays) but they were in the B/B range.

Its +30. Obviously a player can reach 35 every once in a while same as a .300 hitter can hit .350 with good luck.
