Make Your Opinion Count (Through Projection!)

Hey all, its projection time. No, not the classic Freudian defense mechanism, but rather, player projection. The fine people over at fangraphs have set up a ballot system where we can enter how we think our beloved Rockies players (or anyone else) are going to fare in the 2010 season. Ultimately, these rankings will be averaged out and appear on the player pages alongside the Bill James, CHONE, etc. projection systems in an effort to see if the collective wisdom of the fans can offer something beyond the algorithms of the systems.

 

For hitters, we can project:

Games Played, Batting Order, Position, Batting Average, Doubles / Triples, Home Run, Strikeout %, Walk %, Stolen Bases, Fielding (UZR).

 

For pitchers, we can project:

Innings Pitched, Pitcher Role, Wins, Losses, ERA, K/9, BB/9, HR/9.

 

Anyway, here's the link to the post, which contains the link to the actual ballot.

One disclaimer - you need to register (it's totally free) and be logged in on fangraphs to actually make your projection.

Eat. Drink. Be Merry. But the above FanPost does not necessarily reflect the attitudes, opinions, or views of Purple Row's staff (unless, of course, it's written by the staff [and even then, it still might not]).
