Community Projections: Right Field
I've decided I'm going to average the rest of the position players at one time and put them in one post. So we'll just finish them up today with the right fielders. I'll ask for projections for Corey Hart and Jim Edmonds.
Corey Hart (Fangraphs page) is the starter. I don't have a whole lot to say about him other than what has already been established. Hopefully he finds a good tradeoff between plate discipline and power this season.
CHONE: .271/.333/.456
ZiPS: .263/.323/.453
The first thing I suggest you decide is if Jim Edmonds will make the team. If not, you don't need to enter anything in his boxes, just leave them blank please (no zeroes). CHONE doesn't project him because he didn't play last season, and ZiPS says .225/.327/.422. His Fangraphs page will give a more full picture of what he's done the past few years, and a simple Marcel projection can be found there as well.

.280/.335/.470 85% No Edmonds, Gerut 15%
Yes I’m optimistic on Hart.

CHONE does have an Edmonds projection, though it isn’t pretty (and is expressly meant to be taken with a grain of salt since there’s no data from 2009):
.217/.313/.380
I think CHONE is sometimes particularly harsh on older players though, I was much more optimistic.
Hart: .280/.330/.465 and 85%
Edmonds: .260/.345/.470 and 10%
Gerut at 5% in RF.
I don’t know if Edmonds is a viable fielder anymore (though I still expect he’ll get 10% of the playing time there) but he should be a nice PH option.
Ryan Braun: He loves it.
You're right, I didn't have time to go to the Baseball projection website before my deadline
I’m glad I didn’t list it though.
E: George 4 (5, throw, throw, throw, throw).
