Hmm, I think about my old FPS BBPro days and their GF rating for batters and pitchers.
It wasn't a fixed sort of split, in fact, the GF rating was more representative of the average direction the ball travelled off the bat.
At first glance, it seems like the same thing as OOTP's GB% rating (from what I see of it), but in the BBPro sense, it represents a much more concrete thing that describes all types of hits and their likelihood based on a particular hitter/pitcher matchup.
Basically, nothing in OOTP now distinguishes the angle of a fly ball, just that X% are going to be fly balls in some direction, but the difference between liner and pop-up is significant (as shown in the above posts).
