That's an interesting point. A catcher throws to 1B, the guy misses the throw because his range is bad, but the catcher gets the error. If that's correct, however, the 1B should also get a minus play, be he doesn't.
If I understand the rules of how Sim Baseball stats work, +/- plays, being nonofficial stats, are simply guides to help define a play -- official stats trump the play.
That is, if an error is called on the play, the sim doesn't even check for +/-, except for the case of the obscure +- play, which is actually a + play that an error is then made on.
