    Re: PECOTA 08

    Are there any rookies with a higher VORP than Jay Bruce?

    Re: PECOTA 08

    Say Jay Bruce is projected to be the Reds 3rd most valuable hitter next year and in actuality really close to being second? Nice.

    If Rosales could do that, I say bring him up, start him at SS, and deal with the E's. Of course, PECOTA just loves them some minor leaguers.

    Rosales probably could do that, but I don't think he would come close to cutting it defensively at shortstop. 3B, 1B and maybe even 2B would be alright, but shortstop isn't his position.

    Re: PECOTA 08

    Dickerson ranked above Hopper...?

    How does Brian Anderson rank... I'm still thinking that might be a deal that gets done.

    Re: PECOTA 08

    WOY- Any idea of Griffey Jr.'s rookie season projection(s) (not actual) at that time from BP compared to Jay Bruce and his predicted results of today? I'm intrigued by Rick Sweet's comments about Junior and Jay being the same "animal" at this point in their careers.

    A comparative line between the two would be interesting to see.

    Thanks for the listed projections.

    That is some nice love for the Reds young guys and look at the love for Keppinger. Pecota predicts a big drop for Griffey no?
    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!

    The Rays also signed well-traveled left-hander Brian Anderson to a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training. Anderson, 35, hasn’t pitched in the majors since 2005, when he made six generally unsuccessful starts for the Royals

    BP didn't exist then and neither did PECOTA until 2003 or 2004

    Wrong Brian Anderson. The OF is .240/.305/.395 with a VORP of -.5.

    WOY, he's referring to the White Sox's Brian Anderson per the Anderson thread (that thread was about the CF, NOT the Pitcher).
