BCB Projections: Right Fielders, Closing LF
Introduction, CA | 1B | 2B | 3B | SS | LF | CF
Wrapping up our Ryan Braun projections:
BCB: .298/.353/.585
Chone: .294/.351/.556
ZiPS: .306/.358/.620
And I will take ours against the other two once again. ZiPS really likes Braun-- their optimistic projection for him expected 52 home runs. I think we're all optimistic on the average, but I like our chances to beat the other two projection systems here.
We're down to our final position players: the right fielders. Hart's struggles in the second half, coupled with his quote "I'm not going to sit there and walk", has led to some pessimism. The projection systems think he'll be alright, will our community projections agree?

Tomorrow I'll wrap up center field and right field, so be sure to get the projections in for both by tomorrow. We're not quite done projecting yet, though-- we still have to decide on defense and lineup positions, which I'll set up tomorrow. For the defense, I'll list the CHONE projections and then we can decide whether any of them should be adjusted; I think a case can be made to change a few them. Then we need to project all the pitchers. I'd appreciate some feedback-- would you prefer to do all of the starters in one day? We're just going to ask for ERA and innings pitched, so they can be pretty quick. I think we'll schedule the starters for Thursday, but if there's a consensus in the comments to split them up, we'll finish them on Friday. Then we'll get the bullpen and wrap up the whole project, though we might have to make some changes based on transactions before opening day.
Thanks again for your participation, please help out if you can. The link to centerfielders is on the top of the page, and both threads will remain open until tomorrow afternoon.

that should read “I am pretty optimistic” I normally do not talk like an infant even if I do type like one.

Also, re: feedback
I think we can do all SP in the same day

He’s not the worst pitcher ever, just the worst good pitcher.
baumann used it as his signature for a while
“Nothing is working right now with a lot of the guys. We’re trying to see pitches and see what we can do. … I’m not going to sit there and walk, though. I’ll eventually find it, and hopefully we’ll still be in it.” -Corey Hart
From this September during The Slump.

Do baseball insiders still consider Hart the most complete player out of all the Brewers’ young guys? I seem to remember hearing a few quotes to that effect last year.

Above that, I’m happy. Below that, I’m a sad panda. And, if it is below that, I’m sending this fellow after him:

Check out those tan lines
Carl really needs a tanning bed

"If lovin’ Braun is wrong, I want to be a repeat offender"
