sheewizard's notes
  1. They are an aggregate of ZIPS, Steamer, and Oliver. All three available on Fangraphs. They are all equally weighted.
  2. Focus on the rate stats, not the counting stats. The counting stats are for reference only.
  3. I am not trying to project playing time. I simply put the PA''s as 600 PA for a starter, 200 PA for a primary Sub, and 50 PA for a secondary Sub, the exception being Tuffy. I did this so you can better contextualize the rate stats for walks, K's, and homers
  4. I highligted the best projection in each grouping in Green and the worst projection in Red in each rate category within each group. This is for quick reference on a players strength and weakness. (So for example Didi has the worst slugging and OPS projection among primary starters, which I think captures Pete's "gut feeling" on Didi.
  5. I was just playing around with different presentation formats, and am not trying to give a team total projection. To do that, I would need to project playing time and that is really just too hard to do.
