February 2, 20215 yr Man how the mighty have fallen. Lotta competition for B-Pro these days and PECOTA is just one projection system in a sea of them. Used to be a real event back in the early aughts.

February 2, 20215 yr .759 / 2.3 from Moncada ..... that's no bueno. Need superstar status from him. Like .850 / 4.8

February 2, 20215 yr 17 minutes ago, Sambuca said: Too late. Too late? As in like when he did it 15 months ago?
February 2, 20215 yr 2 minutes ago, KrankinSox said: Too late? As in like when he did it 15 months ago? Is 15 months ago PECOTA?
February 2, 20215 yr 3 minutes ago, Sambuca said: Is 15 months ago PECOTA? Are you suggesting it's too late for Moncada to put up an .850 4.8 war season? Because PECOTA says so?

February 2, 20215 yr 1 hour ago, Vulture said: Anderson and Robert at .732? I think I’ll take the over on those. Ill take a solid OVER on Anderson, Robert, and TA and a healthy healthy under on Nick Madrigal.
February 2, 20215 yr I also think anderson is too low. He is a regression candidate but depth charts has him at .774 (from 886), 730 is just too low. Also I think lynn and giolito are too low, I'm thinking high 3s for lynn and mid 3s or even lower for giolito. Keuchel sounds about right but moncada I'm hoping for like low 800s.
February 2, 20215 yr 10 hours ago, Vulture said: Anderson and Robert at .732? I think I’ll take the over on those. They have Madrigal with a higher OPS than Robert which is pretty hard to believe. However it did happen last year as I pointed out a while ago. But over a long season theres no way that happens. Robert would have to hit like he did when he slumped last year for multiple months. I think there's a good chance he moves forward in a highly positive way this year. It would help tremendously.

Surprising they give Keuchel such a bad FIP . He has had only 2 seasons his whole career with an FIP worse than 4.41 and one was his rookie year and the other was the short season with Atlanta. They must be highly conservative giving 2 semi older pitchers like Keuchel and Lynn so much regression coming off very good seasons.
February 2, 20215 yr If the PECOTA stuff is to be believed those numbers don't exactly look like playoff numbers so Fuck Pecota.

I do believe he can stay under 1 which is great these days but .3 is probably not attainable in a full season. I would be ok with a low 4s for keuchel, I think 4.4 is a bit high, maybe more like 4.1 or so.
February 9, 20215 yr PECOTA record projections are out today. White Sox mean of simulated records is 83-79, good for 3rd in the AL Central. Tampa Bay takes second Wild Card, Toronto and Cleveland also finish ahead of white Sox. There’s a handy little chart of probability of finishes if anyone can excerpt it. Dodgers projection of 102.9 wins is about the highest PECOTA has ever popped out. https://www.baseballprospectus.com/standings/

What a disappointing off season this was. Not even above Cleveland. Smh.

What a bunch of nonsense.

They have the Cubs finishing with a better record than the Sox. Edited February 9, 20215 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside
