"It's hard for people to see because you look at our (the 2008 Pittsburgh Pirates) record and I've heard, 'Here we go again,' 'Nothing's different,' 'It's the same old Pirates,' But I think if you've been around it, you do see that things are different. You see that it has changed." - Pittsburgh Pirates Manager John Russell on MLB.com (Jenifer Langosch, 09/28/08)

Did you know that fielding percentage (last column on the right) reflects the percentage of times a player at any given position handles a batted or thrown baseball and is calculated by the sum of putouts (PO) and assists (A) divided by the number of total chances (TC), which is PO + A + Errors (E)?

How do you determine who is the fielding champion for the 2008 Pittsburgh Pirates at each position? Major League Baseball (Rule 10.22 Minimum Standards for Individual Championships) states: "The individual fielding champions shall be the fielders with the highest fielding average at each position, provided: (1) A catcher must have participated as a catcher in at least one-half the number of games scheduled for each club in his league that season; (2) An infielder or outfielder must have participated at his position in at least two-thirds of the number of games scheduled for each club in his league that season; and (3) A pitcher must have pitched at least as many innings as the number of games scheduled for each club in his league that season, unless another pitcher has a fielding average as high or higher and has handled more total chances in fewer innings, in which case such other pitcher shall be the fielding champion."
