THT concluded that the 2008 defense was 54 plays below league average . i was wondering what the fielding bible would show the 2008 numbers to be . is the information gathered by both of these sources similiar enough to assume a level-field comparison ? it will be interesting to see how the teams look to resolve their "issues" during the off-season . your insights have provided me with a few ideas on how each team should approach their particular set of problems . whether my "opinions" jive with what actually transpires on the major league level remains to be seen . more important , (for me) , is if i can translate this type of analytical thinking to my own teams in an attempt to improve my fantasy teams' performance . matthew :

it will be interesting to see how the teams look to resolve their “issues” during the off-season .

your insights have provided me with a few ideas on how each team should approach their particular set of problems .

whether my “opinions” jive with what actually transpires on the major league level remains to be seen .

more important , (for me) , is if i can translate this type of analytical thinking to my own teams in an attempt to improve my fantasy teams’ performance .
