Why play the season? onRoto, Tout Wars stat provider, offers a Toy Box of tools to help teams create reports for custom periods during the year, look at the draft day roster standings and more. One fun Toy Box item at this point, before the season has begun, is Projected Standings.
BaseballHQ’s projections are applied to the rosters of all teams and standings are calculated. Read ’em and weep (or cry out in joy, Brent Hershey).
Of course BaseballHQ’s Brent Hershey and Ray Murphy are going to rank highly. The Toy Box is using their projections.
This year onRoto has added Clay Davenport’s projections, which have nothing to do with HQ. How’d those turn out?
Well, Brent is still in the top group, but it looks like Perry Van Hook and Greg Ambrosius are also to be reckoned with.
But all pay attention to Chris Liss’s maxim: “I want to be last in the projected standings. If I’m last I know I had a good draft.”
Or as Yogi might put it, “It ain’t over until they’ve started playing, at least.”
