Try saying ZiPS FIP Projections three times fast.

Anyhow, the numbers of course are purely based on statistics, including estimates based on minor league performances for that particular level. It gives some idea of how some of our upper level prospects might do. In some cases, the model might not be taking into account late season improvements or strong performances in winter ball. I'm thinking mainly of Lucas Sims here. Anyhow here are the projections:

Miller 3.48
Teheran 3.65
Norris 4.14
Banuelos 4.18
Winkler 4.33
Perez 4.36
Weber 4.37
Wisler 4.39
Gant 4.48
Foltynevich 4.50
Newcomb 4.82
Sims 5.09
Jenkins 5.17
Bird 5.67

Replacement level FIP for starting pitchers appears to be around 4.60.
