Surprise
That Carlos Beltran was a poor fielder that season, according to UZR

Interesting comparison ...
… Mets v. Phillies URZ for ’09 starters:
1b Howard 1.0, Delgado -3.5
2b Utley 20.3, Castillo -10.3
Ss Rollins 15.9, Reyes -.6
3b Feliz 10.1, Wright 3.6
RF Werth 33.8, Church 4.8
CF Victorino 10.2, Beltran 7.0
LF Ibanez -10.4, Murphy incomplete
I assume Murphy is going to be a better fielder than Ibanez, even tho he’s relatively new to the position. Otherwise, it’s advantage Phillies at every position. That was surprising to me.
That tells you about UZRs flaws, IMO.
No sane person would say Beltran is anything other than a top 3 defensive center fielder.
