ESPN Projected Standings

This table has been updated. I incorrectly had Jose Guillen's stats twice, replacing Luke Scott's stats. Although their totals are similar, Luke Scott has less playing time, so this hurts Taylor most in RBI, where he goes from 7 points to 4.


R HR RBI SB AVG K W SV ERA WHIP Total
Bill 8 8 8 6 6 4 2 8 5 7 62
Taylor 2 6 4 1 2 8 4 7 8 8 50
Caleb 6 2 3 2 8 5 8 3 4 6 47
Kate 3 3 6 3 7 1 5 6 6 4 44
Luke 4 5 7 5 4 7 7 1 1 3 44
Mark 7 7 5 7 3 2 3 2 3 2 41
Spencer 1 1 1 4 5 6 5 4 7 5 39
Andrew 5 4 2 8 1 3 1 5 2 1 32



A few caveats about the standings. First off, Caleb is projected to exceed his IP count by 40 innings. Also, because I didn't factor in backups, teams starting injury prone (or currently injured) players simply don't have as many counting stats. The one exception I made was that I had 2 CI for Caleb - Darric Barton and Ryan Garko, because neither was projected to get much playing time. Also, I don't think the ESPN standings are gospel. They probably overrate older players, assuming they will continue at past levels of performance, so my offense totals in particular may be overrated, as I have Konerko and Dye and major parts of my offense. Finally WHIP is very, very close in the 4 to 7 point range, with Spencer, Kate, Caleb, and I all having WHIPs of 1.24 or 1.25, but mine is projected to be the lowest by a tiny bit, so I ended up with the extra 3 points.
