I've been involved with the SABR stats committee since the day I joined in the mid 80s, and no, you can't analyze the crap out of fielding statistically. It's been tried, but no one has really been able to come up with a reliable metric for measuring fielding, thus huge debates still rage about fielding, its importance, effect, etc.

I like to sit outside drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
