Baseball America Predicted the Future, Got It 54% Right

Every year Baseball America projects each team's future lineups: this winter they're looking ahead to 2019. This allows us readers to wonder if, yes, Ryan Braun will be washed up by 2019, or no, we don't care how good of prospects Lewis Brinson, Trent Clark, and Corey Ray are, Braun will still be better than at least one of them in 2019. In making its predictions, BA sensibly ignores possible trades, free agency, injuries, and foreign and college players. The projected lineups are a way of looking at a team's depth, strengths, and weaknesses, not an attempt to actually predict the future.

Nevertheless, I've always wondered: how do these prediction fare? So I took a look at the projections BA published in 2013 and compared them to actual 2016 starters (2016 data taken from Baseball Reference). BA's projections go fifteen deep in the American League and fourteen deep in the National League: starting position players (plus AL designated hitter), a full starting rotation, and a closer. I was essentially looking for guys who were on both lists: projected in 2013, started in 2016. Each of those guys get a value of "1" for purposes of the table below. Guys who appeared in 2013 lists but didn't start in 2016 (essentially busts) are not factored into the statistics I use; nor are guys who weren't on the lists in 2013 but actually filled these roles in 2016 (essentially surprises). However great they may be, busts and surprises are assigned a value of "0."

So, how many times did BA hit the jackpot, like Trevor Story being predicted in 2013—despite Troy Tulowitzki still being on the scene—and ending up the actual starting shortstop for Colorado in 2016? And how many times did BA look kind of silly, like Angelo Gumbs predicted at keystone for the Bronx Bombers?

Of the 435 projections BA made in 2013, 125 players started for the same team in 2016, a 29% success rate, and an average of 4.2 players per team. The high was a startling nine correct predictions for the Orioles (Matt Wieters, Jonathan Schoop, J.J. Hardy, Manny Machado, Adam Jones, Chris Davis, Dylan Bundy, Kevin Gausman, Chris Tillman), and the low one lonely survivor each for the Mets (Matt Harvey) and the Athletics (um, Josh Reddick).

If we acknowledge that the predictions are more about who will still be around in three years, rather than what team they'll play for, BA's success rate rises significantly: 54%, or 233 players from 2013 projections, had actual starting jobs somewhere in 2016. That's an average of 7.8 per team. On the one hand, given the speed of change in the game and the inherent difficulty in predicting the future, that seems pretty good. On the other hand, that means 202 of 2016's actual starters were not foreseen by the premier scouting magazine in the country just three years ago. 202. That's a startling number.

At any rate, as you can probably tell at a glance, much more can be gleaned from the data than a simple parlor game evaluation of whether BA got it right or not. Let's look deeper; possessing BA-predicted talent, keeping it, and increasing it correlated strongly with winning and getting to the playoffs.

The Speed of the Game

Spending many hours with the lists and looking at 693 rows and 6 columns of data, my biggest visceral impression was how fast things change. I expected this, but the shock of it exceeded my expectations. Many guys who were among the best players in the game in 2013 now seem like distant afterthoughts, from projected Phillies #2 and #3 starting pitchers Cliff Lee and Roy Halladay to offensive stalwarts David Wright, Corey Hart, Pablo Sandoval, and Rickie Weeks. Countless can't miss prospects missed badly or (more common) are still treading water, from Javier Baez to Jurickson Profar to Mike Zunino to Mike Olt. Ten of thirty projected number one starting pitchers landed in a wasteland of injury or ineffectiveness, and weren't even in the top five of a rotation in 2016: Tyler Skaggs, Kris Medlen, Justin Masterson, Mike Zimmer, Alex Meyer, Zack Wheeler, Jarrod Parker, Casey Kelly, Yu Darvish, and Josh Johnson. Cy Young winners Corey Kluber and Jake Arrieta were completely ignored in 2013. So was future MVP Josh Donaldson. Future MVP Kris Bryant was still in college. Inside three years, Dallas Keuchel climbed the mountain and fell off it: he was not listed in 2013, won the Cy Young award in 2015, and is back to being not very good.

The Old vs. The Young

So we should give up on all the veterans right? On the contrary. There were plenty of survivors who defy time and seem to suggest that BA was too willing to count guys out too quickly in 2013. David Ortiz is the best example of a guy who not only held on but continued to ridiculously excel, and there are dozens of quality role players or better like Nelson Cruz, John Lackey, or Francisco Rodriguez who BA gave up on but who kept on keeping on. And who doesn't enjoy the defiance of time of guys like Bartolo Colon, Colby Lewis, and Jayson Werth?

However, when looking over the total list of 2016 surprises—all 202 guys like these who were completely unlisted in 2013—young ones far outnumber these battle-axe guys. For example, Robbie Ray, Jimmy Nelson, Colin McHugh, Jerad Eickhoff, Kendall Graveman, and Luis Perdomo are all among 2013 totally unlisted players who not only made it as starters in 2016, but filled #1 starting pitcher slots. I did a casual count, and would consider about 47 of the 202 "surprises" to have been established veterans in 2013 who BA therefore could be considered to have discounted too quickly. However, using the same casual count, that's opposed to about 56 similarly established players who BA did list in 2013 but who actually didn't make it (like Lee and Halladay). So, the "neglected veterans" question is essentially a wash: we can't say BA was either too hard on or too optimistic with veterans. The overvalued about as many guys as they undervalued.

Do The Numbers Have Any Wider Meaning?

Moving beyond the "ooh, aah!" realm of looking at the rise and fall of individual players that simply demonstrates the volatility of the human athlete, there is a second major takeaway from the data: the more 2013 projected starters General Managers collected for their 2016 teams, the more likely they were to win. Look at the chart above again: none of the ten 2016 playoff teams had fewer than seven starters who were projected starters back in 2013, and the average was 9.4. Meanwhile, of the eleven 2016 teams with winning percentages under .465, only one (Atlanta) had more than seven starters from the 2013 lists, and the average was 5.5. Let me say that again:

Playoff teams: 9.4 correct predictions

Bad teams: 5.5 correct predictions

That's a stark gulf. It means that whatever unforeseen gems like Jacob DeGrom were found to help make up the ranks of the 202 previously unlisted players, in general the fewer guys you had to find from outside the 2013 lists, the better you did—in other words, there's a lot more Ricky Nolasco in the scrap heap than Jake Arrieta. Baseball America essentially got it right: while 202 of the players they projected to be starters didn't make it, the 233 who did were generally of a much higher quality than the 202 replacements, Bryant, Ortiz, Kluber, et al., notwithstanding. And having 2013 projected guys was important to having a winning ballclub.

Put it this way: the starting rotations of the Los Angeles Dodgers and Cincinnati Reds both made news in 2016: the Dodgers dug deep to find guys to plug constant holes, and started umpteen pitchers in a herculean effort to keep things afloat. The Reds sank, featuring cover-your-eyes pitching. What were the four teams whose 2016 rotations featured one or fewer guys were listed as likely starters back in 2013? They would be the Reds (zero), and the Dodgers, Phillies, and Athletics (one each—Clayton Kershaw, Jeremy Hellickson, and Sonny Gray). In other words, it was hard but not impossible to overcome weak 2013 talent-possession levels. The Dodgers pulled it out in a madcap, resource-heavy scramble. The Reds, Phillies, and A's crashed and burned.

But It's Not What You Had in 2013, It's What You Did With It Since Then

Strikingly, what's even more important than the raw number of guys you had in 2013 or 2016 is how much you increased or decreased your number of those guys between those years. Teams that leveraged weak rosters and farm systems by bringing in better players than they gave up improved. Duh. Teams that squandered strong systems by letting future talent go without bringing in other talent had losing records. Double duh. An example: giving up 2013 listed guys Adam Eaton, Justin Upton, and Gerardo Parra in favor of unlisted, "found" guys Yasmany Tomas, Michael Bourn, and Brandon Drury was not a net gain for Arizona. The more of this teams did—replacing listed guys with unlisted guys—the more they lost. And the more they filled 2013 holes with listed guys from other teams, the more they won.

Not so duh: this is true even if they started with relatively little talent in 2013. The Mets are the poster child. Of the 14 guys projected by BA in 2013 to start for the Mets in 2016, only three (Matt Harvey, R.A. Dickey, Jonathan Niese) actually filled starting jobs in the majors in 2016. That's the worst in all of baseball: by this measure the Mets had the worst talent base in the game in 2013—and made the World Series in 2015.

Why? The Mets had the highest increase in number of starters owned by a team, going from three in 2013 to eight in 2016. The Mets managed to turn a projected line-up that included Kevin Plawecki, Gavin Cecchini, and Cory Vaughn into one that included Travis D'Arnaud, Neil Walker, and Yoenis Cespedes. Compare that to what Arizona did. You can say "duh" all you want, but every team is trying to add legitimate talent: the Mets succeeded more than anyone else, and it brought them a league crown.

It's not just the Mets. All ten 2016 playoff teams had either an increase in 2013 projected guys or stayed the same. While of the ten teams that had a decrease in the number of starters from the 2013 lists, only one, Detroit, had a winning record in 2016.

Increase also mattered regardless of raw amount of talent: if you add the number of starters held in 2013 and 2016, the Mets and Rangers both have low total numbers, 3+8=11 and 6+7=13 respectively. But they both improved—and both made the playoffs. Teams like Arizona (10+6=16) and Tampa (8+7=15) controlled more total talent over the three years, but both decreased their level, and both were terrible in 2016.

The last three World Series champions all bear out the above patterns. The Cubs started with little in 2013: just five future major league starters. By 2016 they had nine. Meanwhile, no team retained like the Giants. They had eight future starters in 2013, and kept all eight (the only team to retain all its talent). They also managed to add four from other teams, giving them twelve in 2016. With that kind of retention and supplementation, it is no wonder they won three championships in six years. The Royals overpowered the league by using most of the 10 future starters from their 2013 list. But their decline to .500 in 2016 is matched by their decline to eight total starters. The Giants built on their strong core, and are still good. Kansas City didn't, and got worse.

How about the worst team in the league? That would be the Twins, and they had the second least starters both in 2013 (4) and 2016 (4). Another team with particularly low talent levels in both 2013 and 2016 was the Phillies (6/3), who were also predictably awful in 2016.

Stability Matters

So San Francisco kept all eight of its 2013 bona fide guys, and won in 2016 (stability good). However, Miami kept seven of its nine, and lost (stability bad). The Cubs and Mets jettisoned more than half of their own 2013 guys in favor of other teams' 2013 guys, and won (volatility good). Collecting the "Much Ado About Nothing" award, the Padres kept only one of their seven 2013 guys, but picked up six other teams' guys, leaving them back with seven overall. And lost. (Volatility bad.) So, does stability matter? Or can you switch up players as much as you like, as long as you increase your number of starters?

The Giants and the Padres are more representative of the overall data, while the Cubs, Marlins, and Mets are outliers. In general, teams that kept their own guys fared better than teams that switched them out for guys from other teams, regardless of how much total talent the team actually had, or whether the team had a net loss or gain in talent. Fifteen teams kept more than half of their 2013 talent through 2016, and ten of those fifteen teams had winning records in 2016. On the flip side, thirteen teams jettisoned more than half of their 2013 talent, and only four of those thirteen managed a winning record in 2016. That's 10-5 for stability and 4-9 for volatility.

Counterevidence and Problems

Some of you are no doubt crying out with various objections; for example, this article treats each starter as if he is of the same quality: having Anthony Rizzo is just as good here as having Alexei Ramirez. Yes, both of those players are assigned an identical value of "1" in the above chart, being exactly one guy who was projected as a starter in 2013 and in fact started in 2016.

Yes—this is one of many weaknesses I'm sailing over in trying to make a general point.

And hell, let's us run with this limitation a bit. Both Chicago clubs have the exact same numbers: five 2013 projection guys who went on to actually start somewhere in 2016, kept two of those guys, added seven other guys from other clubs (on the chart above, a 5-9-2 pattern). Yet despite this identical statistic, the Cubs were worldbeaters and the White Sox stank. There are other clubs who break the overall mold, too. Texas wins the Overachiever Award, having little talent to start with (6) and not much more in 2016 (7). Yet they had the best winning percentage in the American League. (They did pass the increase and stability tests, though, going from 6 to 7 and keeping 4 of their original six). Then there are the Braves, who win the Underachiever Award. They started with a lot of talent in 2013 (9 starters) and had even a little more in 2016 (10). They had a lot of talent and increased it. Yet they a shambles in 2016.

Why? My sense is that Atlanta provides a perfect illustration of the folly of one possible false conclusion from the data: that going to BA's 2013 lists and simply acquiring as many of those guys as possible is a good strategy. No. You need to keep or acquire guys from that list that deserve to start (Freddie Freeman, Julio Teheran), not just guys from that list who maybe don't (Nick Markakis, Jim Johnson, Tyler Flowers, Mike Foltynewicz, Jace Peterson, Erick Aybar...). You need Anthony Rizzo, not Avisail Garcia. (Atlanta also woefully failed the stability test.)

So, caveats aside, the overall data remains strong: in general, possessing BA-predicted talent, keeping it, and increasing it correlated strongly with winning and getting to the playoffs.

BA's 54% player-by-player success rate holds remarkably stable across positions. Again ignoring what position they ended up at, and just counting whether they ended up starting at a position at all, for first base, second base, third base, left field, center field, designated hitter, and pitcher (lumping together all starters and the closer and then averaging), BA got either 14, 15, or 16 (in the case of DH 7) guys right (out of 30 teams, and in the case of the DH 15). That's pretty close to 50% for twelve of the fifteen positions looked at. In other words it appears it is no harder or easier to predict, say, second basemen than starting pitchers.

Kind of. Catcher, shortstop, and right field all proved easier to predict, with 20 or 21 guys correct for each. This was not surprising for catcher or shortstop. Catcher is a skilled position that involves lots of learning; it's not as easy to move guys in or out of there, and teams are more likely to stick with what they have. Once you're considered a major league catcher, you tend to stay that way for a long time, no matter how badly you hit (or, in some cases, field). Meanwhile, shortstop is considered the most athletic position in the game. In general, it is believed that if you can play there, you can play most anywhere. Indeed, of the seven guys who moved off shortstop, none moved to an outfield corner or dh: their athleticism kept them in higher-skilled positions, and the 2013 ss predictions are chock full of top prospects who resoundingly made it, like Carlos Correa and Francisco Lindor.

Right field, however, was a surprise: I would have predicted this to be a garbage position, much like left field, which collected more players from other positions (8.5) than it kept from its own predicted starters (8). My guess is that guys predicted for rf have to have enough hit and enough glove ability to get predicted to start, while that isn't true for center (perception that hitting is less needed) or left (perception that defense is less needed). Thus, projected right fielders were better overall athletes and more likely to stick. That's just a guess, but nevertheless, watch out for those well-rounded right fielder predictions.

Pitchers deserve a separate word. Despite the chaos at #1 starter mentioned earlier, guys predicted to be #1 starters were still much more likely to actually start in the majors in 2016 (20) than predicted #5 starters were (9). Again, BA's evaluation of talent is amazingly consistent: the number of guys who stuck as a starting pitcher declines steadily from #1 to #5 predictions (20/20/16/11/9), especially if you look at the number of guys from each category who made it to #1 starter (8/4/3/1/0). And it is worth underlining again that though starting pitching is often seen as impossible to predict, that didn't bear out: on average across the five starting pitcher slots, BA got 15 guys right as future starters—no better or worse than the overall average for most of the offensive positions.

If there is one position that is harder to predict than the others, it is closer:only nine of 2013's predicted closers still had roles in 2016 (the only position with less than 14). And frankly, I'm surprised it was that many. Does this mean giving tens of millions to a closer is foolish—they don't survive, and relief is essentially fungible? Or that it is prudent—since stability is scarce, it is worth paying for (survivors include Kenley Jansen and Aroldis Chapman)? I'll go with the former, as I'd much rather try to find a Jeurys Familia, Sam Dyson, or Seung-Hwan Oh, etc., than pay tens of millions to a David Robertson or Craig Kimbrel—even if it means I risk putting up with a season of Tony Cingrani when Daniel Corcino doesn't pan out.

Unresolved

Want to do your own study? Want to browse the data? It is pasted in below, with each fascinating data point, from Bryce Brentz to Maikel Franco. The first 465 rows comprise the entire 2013 BA lists for every team. After that are the lists of additional guys who weren't expected to start in 2016 but did—"surprises."

Aside from anecdotal mention of guys like Donaldson and Drury, I didn't mine the "surprises" data much: who are they? Where did they come from? Where were they in BA's top 30s in 2013? Or team depth charts? Can trends be discerned there that show a group of players BA undervalues? (My guess is tweeners—guys whose prospect status was gone but hadn't established themselves as big leaguers yet, or low-ceiling prospects who got to their ceiling.) If only 47 were established veterans in 2013, who were the other 155?

And I'm sure there are a lot of angles on this data I didn't think of. What can you get out of this data that I didn't?

Happy mining.
