Fielding metrics on a play-by-play basis is very noisy. There is significant grey area as well -- positioning can often be as important as defensive skill and its hard to know who to credit for that.
Anyhow, qualitatively different fielding metrics tend to agree but it doesn't have anywhere near the same level of quantitative accuracy as PA-based offensive calculations.
