The Hardball Times will be updating Marcel forecasts on a weekly basis throughout the season. Now, when someone asks what we can expect from a player going forward, we have a pretty good answer. As usual, Marcel’s main weaknesses are with players without much playing time, players who switch leagues and/or ballpark, and predicting playing time.
Here are the Rays’ Marcels as of July 30:
Last OPS Pena .870 Longoria .860 Upton .819 Gomes .787 Crawford .786 Hinske .786 Floyd .769 Aybar .764 Gross .761 Ruggiano .761 Iwamura .739 Johnson .733 Navarro .732 Riggans .715 Haynes .703 DiFelice .688 Bartlett .687 Zobrist .662
(The difference between “Rest Of Season” and “True Talent” projections is just that the True Talent projections pro-rate every player’s line to 650 plate appearances. The AVG/OBP/SLG line is exactly the same.)
