Thats the thing these projection system fail to take into account is injuries/abnormalities. If you subtract all of Rios PA's from the month of May, his wOBA skyrockets to around .385, which places him amonsgt the top 25-30 hitters in the league!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747236263452087289.post-6424670861091105362009-01-02T01:15:00.000-05:002009-01-02T01:15:00.000-05:00His 34% line drive rate can't help normalize his n...His 34% line drive rate can't help normalize his numbers eitherDrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07271534213351978408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747236263452087289.post-40780152518446682342009-01-01T23:07:00.000-05:002009-01-01T23:07:00.000-05:00I'm pretty sure Marcel doesn't use minor league nu...I'm pretty sure Marcel doesn't use minor league numbers, so they are completely useless for Snider...This might have something to do with why he's just over 200 innings, too:<BR/><BR/>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).halejonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08705691174123402548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-747236263452087289.post-91929680108546832162008-12-30T09:15:00.000-05:002008-12-30T09:15:00.000-05:00I just re-read my comment from yesterday...I apolo...I just re-read my comment from yesterday...I apologize for the weird wording and hanging elipses.

I usually go with what someone famous said at one point about a place(I think Hollywood) "no one really knows anything."(or something like that. Unless Marcel knows that Lind and Snider are going to have unfortunate run-ins with garden appliances or tire irons when they reach those AB levels. I also forgot what I was talking about a long time ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
