In 2019, Major League Baseball recorded a .984 fielding percentage on average. No ATB team is all that close to that mark, but the KC Cobblers and Willets Point "Mechanics" are at least .975 or better.
At the other end of the spectrum, very far down the list, are the Dayton Toppins and Inglorious Batters who both clock in at .942. To put this in perspective, the Cobblers are on pace to make 162 errors this season, or about 1 every game; conversely, the Batters, with their current pace would fumble the ball 383 times, or about 2.6 errors each game.
Here are the projected totals for each team:
162 Errors - Willets Point "Mechanics"
176 Errors - Kansas City Cobblers
177 Errors - Newport Beach Cole Trains
178 Errors - Critical Failures
191 Errors - Lady Evelyn Walleyes
191 Errors - Birmingham Cloverleafs
206 Errors - Planet 10 Lectroids
216 Errors - Cleveland Spiders
221 Errors - Ohio N95ers
230 Errors - Lakeview Zeros
236 Errors - Downsouth Brews
252 Errors - Back Bay Bivalves
259 Errors - Manetheren Red Eagles
259 Errors - Springfield Isotopes
275 Errors - Spanish Harlem Pinata Beaters
280 Errors - Grumman Hellcats
288 Errors - Wynnewood Tiger Kings
292 Errors - Fox City Foxes
308 Errors - Shamokin Miners
339 Errors - New Amsterdam Highlanders
373 Errors - Otterville Valley Otters
378 Errors - Chattanooga Lookouts
378 Errors - Dayton Toppins
383 Errors - Inglorious Batters
On other horrific stat to pass along, at least if you are Michael and Zach, owners of Lady Evelyn - their catching tandem of Victor Martinez and Joe Mauer are historically poor at throwing out base runners. These Walleyes may not have the worst thrown-out percentage in the league (though it's close), but for some reason teams are clearly picking on them in attempts:
32 SB Against, 78% Success Rate
12 SB Against, 8% Success Rate
12 SB Against, 67% Success Rate
11 SB Against, 79% Success Rate
10 SB Against, 53% Success Rate
9 SB Against, 56% Success Rate
9 SB Against, 9% Success Rate
9 SB Against, 75% Success Rate
8 SB Against, 73% Success Rate
8 SB Against, 53% Success Rate
8 SB Against, 62% Success Rate
7 SB Against, 7% Success Rate
7 SB Against, 7% Success Rate
6 SB Against, 86% Success Rate
5 SB Against, 71% Success Rate
5 SB Against, 83% Success Rate
5 SB Against, 56% Success Rate
5 SB Against, 5% Success Rate
4 SB Against, 67% Success Rate
4 SB Against, 5% Success Rate
4 SB Against, 8% Success Rate
3 SB Against, 25% Success Rate
