PMR REDUX -- SHORTSTOPS
UPDATE: David Pinto just posted that there was a data error and he'll be re-posting his 2B and SS figures. So I'll update these two posts once the corrected info has been been posted.

UPDATE TWO: Okay, the new figures are up.

David Pinto has starting posting his Probabilistic Model of Range figures for individual players for the 2005 season. Last season, I built on the work of others to convert these figures into a Fielding Runs measure. I have used that same exact method for the new batch of PMR numbers, which you can see below.

Note that David has two different models that he's using, so I'll present the conversion for both. As a further caveat, note that David's method bases "average" on a multi-year sample, so a group of shortstops for any one year may be well below or above average. As I described last year, I try to determine what the average was for the season in question. As I'm going off the following players only, it's likely not exactly the average, but it's probably pretty close.

A few comments:

1. Pinto says (in his original post), "Cristian Guzman, who was near the top of the list last year, fell off in 2005. His ability to catch line drives did not hold up, indicating his good range rating was somewhat lucky." Whether or not range models should include line drives for infielders was a matter of debate after PMR figures were released last season, and this will add fuel to the fire. See more below after the groundball figures.

2. Jhonny Peralta did very well by Zone Rating (converting to around 10 runs better than average by Chris Dial's translation) and 18 runs above average by Clay Davenport's figures at Baseball Prospectus. PMR comes to a very different conclusion, obviously, so there's an item of interest.

3. Yeah, I think Derek Jeter's an overrated defender, too (by the media, anyway), but -45 runs? Really? That is a buttload of runs. I find that difficult to fathom.Okay, that's been fixed.

4. I'm not really clear on the difference between Pinto's two methods. As you can see, most players come out the same. Angel Berroa, however, is nearly seven runs off. He doesn't really shake out all that well either way, though ...

I also present the above numbers prorated per 4000 Balls in Play, roughly the number of Balls in Play for which a defender will be on the field in around 150-155 games or so.
