Which is better?

What would you rather have in RF if you had to choose between a 3(-4)e11 or 3(0)e7.

Does the -4 arm trump the 4 extra points in e?

I'd take the arm over only 4 errors every time.

tend to agree with mightymoose, even CF(X) doesn't come up all that often (and it is the same % chance for EVERY pitcher, right?) but arm comes up on every Single(of) and Double and Flyball B? to that field, which is a lot.


still, given how the strategy settings work (i.e., they don't differentiate the 3 distinct of positions) it seems to me that if you have one (only one, that is) great arm ('at least' -4) you should be able to influence the baserunning strategy setting (i.e., your opponent will be more conservative for fear that your one great arm will have a turkey shoot)
