Opening Day is now less that 4 weeks away, and with that in mind, I would like to make some predictions for the season. And I want to hear yours too! So, I’m starting a new series in which I’ll look at each player’s ZIPS projection, pro-rated to Fangraphs’ Depth Chart playing time projections, and give my opinion on whether that player will exceed or fall short of his projection. After I give my opinion, I will add a poll so you can make your voice heard as well.
Why ZIPS? Because it’s well-known and fairly accurate (at least compared to the other popular projection systems).
