    Before the season starts this year we're turning the injuries off. except even when players are healthy they don't get every at bat. They will play 90% of the time, give or take. There's also an issue at the top of the lineup with Soriano and his stolen base out problem. Really using an estimate like this to project over 162 games is worthless unless you adjust for playing time.

    There's a pretty damn good chance that Cliff Floyd hits better than Alfonso Soriano next season. I'm just sayin'....

    his projection system (at least offensively) is .800 OPS for everyone! I think he projected like a .850 ops from Pie last season. In the majors.

    theres one HUGE problem with your model, it assumes that every player plays 162 games.

    He isn't counting about $10,000,000 to Carlos Zambrano in arby.

    Carlos Guillen was only on 36% of the ballots. It's funny because all of the writers are mystified as to why the Tigers made the playoffs and won the american league. The answer's right in front of them and they still couldn't see it. It's a disgrace. At least the voters got the team right (Johan Santana).

    Schmidt + Lugo + Lee/Westbrook - Izturis + 0*Prior = More wins than you can imagine.

    I dont want to remind people, but Mark Prior, Glendon Rusch, Angel Guzman, Jerome Williams, Les Walrond. Jae Kuk Ryu, Sean Marshall, Carlos Marmol and Juan Mateo combined for 60 starts last season. They gave up 258 runs in 328 innings, an ERA over seven.

    you don't lose sandwich picks. They are extra picks. i believe they do it in order of the quality of the FA you lost, though i am not sure

    Right on, man! All this twaddle about "stats" is just one more attempt by our oppressively monolithic Western culture to subvert your deep-seated natural instincts and to denigrate the rightful primacy of your sociocultural background and condition by subjugating you with it's fascistic "ideas" and "facts." This cult of heartless, dreamkilling fascists plots to rip us out of the rich cultural tapestry into which we were born, and to rend us from the abiding connection to our cultural roots which is the source of all truly abiding nourishment and sustenance. Thousands of endangered sac bunts die every day, and what do we do? But you can see through this--you and perhaps you alone can see through their imperalistic claims of "objective truth" and obsession with illusory "facts." You and perhaps you alone can see that they wish to tear you from your natural impulses-- the exhilaration of exciting plays unmediated by reflection. You and St. Morgan may be our last hope-- to protect the sanctity of pristine baseball-in-the-moment experience and anecdotes-around-the-fire from the fetid conspiracy of these boot-licking statistics lovers! Down with the fascism of facts! Or not. Best post I've read all day! this needs to be talked about some more
