The most difficult thing for projection systems to project is playing time. The best they can do is assume that some pattern is being formed throughout the years, and when there isn't a pattern a projection system will create a new one. Only Weeks' health will keep him from approaching 700 plate appearances in 2008. We're not too far out of line with average and on base percentage, but we know that weeks last year spent some time in the majors protecting an injured wrist or hitting with bad habits from worrying about that wrist. Unencumbered, we know that he has excellent power. That can't be seen by marcel. Me, I'll take the over on both triples, and homeruns.
