D- Outfielders Topic

Was thinking about fielding an outfielder with a D-/B....what can i expect? Has anyone else fielded an awful outfielder and what were the results? Would you do it again?

I played the 1969 Rich Reese in Right Field in a $100 million twist league recently.
IRL he played 5 games there was rated D-/D- with a .903 FP and a 1.55 Range

Here was the performance he put up:
League Owner Pos GP GS Inn E Throw E PO A DP Good Plays Poor Plays F. Pct SB CS C. ERA PB PK
133178 akira_hokuto RF 105 99 864.7 14 0 142 4 0 0 9 .913 0 0 0.00 0 0

Keep in mind that was with all modern pitchers. If you are going to use deadballers it will be worse.

Hope that helps

FWIW his OPS was .849 and his RC27 was 6.02 so on balance I really can't say I know if it was worth it or not.

I'd actually thought about posting that as a question in the forums myself.

D- covers a wide range of fielding pct. Some aren't so horrible and some are. Performance History can give you a rough idea though it can be skewed by heavily fatigued players.

outfielders with fielding ratings in the Ds and range in the Bs or As are some of the best value in the sim
