I was wondering what exactly the range rating indicated on ASB. What is the difference between a SS with a C for speed and A+ in range vs a SS with an A+ in speed and a C in range, assuming they both have an A in defense?

Re: A question on ratings
Range is how well a player can cover the field at that position. I would assume this would involve, skill and speed and how well the fielder's vision is.
Speed I guess is how fast the player can run the bases and what his chances are of stealing and advancing bases. -

Re: A question on ratings
So if a CF has a high range rating and low speed rating and a LF has the opposite, will the slower CF with better range get to a ball hit between them faster?Comment

Re: A question on ratings
Speed and Range are 2 different things. Speed is how fast you are. Range is how well you can get to the ball. Just because someene has good speed, doesnt mean that he has good range.
Range involves where you position yourself according to the batter/situation.
Range involves reactions and jumps. A CF can be the fastest man in baseball, but if he doesnt get off to a quick start to catch the ball, he will have a lower range.
Range also invovles which type of route you take for the ball. The better angle you take to catch a potential double, the better chance you have to catch it. Remember, the shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line. If a CF runs at a bad angle to catch the ball, his chances will decrease.
Speed helps when determining range, but there are other factors.Comment
