Doesn't Look so Mixed to me.
You're bullet points have:
- UZR trending downward the last three years,
- Fans see him as a below average defender,
- the "teams" that see him as a CF the last three years are the Yankees (known for horrible team D) and even they have been using more as a standin lately...for Melky Cabrera, hardly a defensive Wiz,
- and PMR has him average.
Against that all you need is exactly one defensive measure, BP's Rate, thinks he's golden, plus your bias that speed is all there is to OF defense and his Speed scores, so you claim that the jury is out.
Not sure I can jump on that wagon with you.
