Needed a break from the dreariness in the PNW.
Don't recall my last sober nomdayNoice. Hope you had a drink in hand from the moment you landed up until having to return to the mainland!
Been messing around with some prediction stuff lately. Today, I ran everyone's team through the numbers to spit out a predicted standings for the year - thought I'd say share it with you'll. Some notes first:
1) its based on ur active roster right now. So anyone hanging out in AAA, on assignment, or on the DL, wasn't included. If anyone on ur active roster is hurt, they were included as if they were not
2) for pitchers, all starters have the same weight (200 IP), as do relievers (varied from 55 to 82 depending on ur staff and rotation size). Filling out IP for each role would've made this take way too long.
3) most non-catcher starters got 150 games, sans DH who got 162. Did 110/52 for right/left platoons which is a number I made up. Things like "every fifth start" weren't considered and I would assign the remaining 12 games to obvious backups. For catchers, I looked at current splits and went from there, normally 120/42.
4) since these are median predictions, the standings are more of a cluster than they will be at the end of the year. Some teams will have lots of injuries, some will have several players over-perform, etc.
5) because of the variables - namely last year's production - elite rookies breaking into the majors are likely undervalued. Mediocre rookies are slightly overvalued. Declining veterans are slightly overvalued. Player's with a SSS last year will vary.
6) Elite players - like MVP elite - are undervalued.
7) Fielding production was based off player's position rating. Meaning, if ur starting third baseman is a shortstop in the game, his defensive value was based on him playing at SS with his SS rating.
8) these are schedule-neutral, so playing in varsity means ur real predicted record would be worse, and vice versa for JV

Lol at NDR last when we’re gonna win the ship
If if you recall correctly?
If IIRC, you had like four rookies on ur team, which likely made you seem worse than you are
Or maybe ur team is shit
I'm in season 3 of my 10-season long covert plan to edit Peder into the hall once everyone forgets about him, the O's won't know what hit them!has Peder made the hall yet?
In the same boat, but with regards to my pitching. Was projected to have 63 wins, already about halfway there.enjoying the ride right now...but theres gonna be some obvious rubber banding with this offense incoming. Urgeses is hitting like an MVP candidate and Laikam is playing well above what i would think is his ceiling. Will be interesting to see how long these guys can keep this up.
