Astros 2018 Positional Defense in Review--Outfielders

In a continuation of our analysis of the Astros 2018 defense by the numbers, I’ll review the outfield this week. I used Defensive Runs Saved (DRS) and Ultimate Zone Rating (UZR) in my last edition of the Astros defensive review, which focused on infielders. There are a few different metrics I’d prefer to use this week for outfielders, and I’ll introduce those to you along the way.

Here’s a look at the advanced defensive stats for the Astros outfielders last season.
