Yowser, Marcel loves DLee, putting him in a tie with Tex. Thats a noodle scratcher since his MVP-esque season is now a distant memory.

 

Unsurpisingly, not a fan of Dempster or Wood.

 

Theres just a lot of craziness going on here, especially with the hitters.

They are pretty pessimistic with Fukudome, too.

"FAQ: "But, what about a player who's never played MLB? Where's his forecast?" That's simple. His forecast is the league mean over 200 PA, 60 IP (starter) or 25 IP (reliever). If you want to know what the league mean is, just take the average of anyone forecast with a reliability of 0.00. So, Marcel's official forecast for anyone coming over from Japan is that. "

 

Nothing to be optimistic about, if you don't use Japanese stats. One crappy year in MLB plus two assumed league mean seasons.

Does anyone know the accuracy of any of these forecasting instruments?

 

I'm not sure they are worth the time it takes to do them.

You're frowning because a projection system isn't optimistic about a player?

 

Here. I think Fukudome will OPS ~.830 next year. Now you can smile.
