You might want to stick around for some more qualified people's opinions before making a final decision though.

My guess is difference in errors would be greater than the difference in DPs. I've had a theory that fielding helps turn DPs (real life --> the transfer). I admired Lombardo while he played for an opponent, and picked him up for a season when he was available. Was very happy with his play. Dinos currently have McCarty at short. Have remained competitive in DPs turned despite his 11 arm. (Have long had a ground ball pitching staff, so might be a little misleading). Arm would be great. But glove takes priority for me.

They both aren't bringing much to the table with the bat, and they have essentially identical range. I'm just trying to suss out better glove vs better arm, and probably some better OBP with Peters. Neither are awesome, but both are better than I can bring to the table at the moment, which is nothing.
