Okay, one PECOTA comparison

DMZ · January 28, 2006 at 12:13 am · Filed Under Mariners 

2006 projected lines:
Pitcher A:175 IP, 183 H, 49 BB, 99 K, 24 HR, 4.70 park-adjusted ERA
Pitcher B:184 IP, 208 H, 50 BB, 92 K, 22 HR, 5 park-adjusted ERA

How about this
Pitcher A: 4y, $37.5m
Pitcher B: 1y, $4m

Yes, it’s a repeat of “Pick the Pitcher“

    But which one has more Moxie? What about grit?

    A is Washburn, B is Jason Johnson I assume

    Pitcher B could practically be Pineiro, actually.

    A is Washburn all right, but I’m having trouble finding B. Jason Johnson is close, but his ERA is projected to be a little better. DMZ, do you have a different version of the PECOTA table than the rest of us?

    FYI, pineiro looks a bit better than JJ. That’s not exactly saying much, but it’s something.

    Hmmm. It would appear I do. I should go fix that. PECOTA, folks — many iterations make perfect.

    Has PECOTA taken on Ryan Franklin in Philly? I’d love to know his HR total (and HR rate) prjection.

    Ha, I’d estimate around 40 bombs, in the DH-less National League, despite what PECOTA says.

    PECOTA still has Franklin listed in Seattle, so the 26 HRs they’re giving him is going to be revised upwards.

    Well, let’s see here … Citizen’s Bank Ballpark gets a BP park factor of 1.009 (neutral rating), which seems conservative … and Safeco gets an 0.942 park factor (severe pitcher’s park). Looks like Franklin’s numbers, based on that, would take about a 12 percent adjustment at the ballpark door.

    I get a 7% bump — 26 * 1.009 / .942 = 27.8.

    There are several pitchers that PECOTA is listing at 30+ HRs, but I only see one regular — Javier Vasquez.
