Highlights where SL+ and the glove scores disagree, showing the gap that not having depth in the equation creates.
Carter Jenson does very well glove-score wise but that doesn't reflect in his actual receiving metrics; he also happens to stay in forearm flexion more often than any other catcher in the league, which (by my eye) doesn't work for every part of the zone, especially the top.View quoted post on X
