Defensive Replacement Level Defined
Chris Dial uses his Defensive Runs Saved statistic (based on Zone Rating) to determine what a replacement level defender is.
In general, it's about the same level as offensive replacement is (85% of average).
Most of those he found as replacement level defenders are above average hitters (unsurprisingly), so they're still above replacement level in general.
