As opposed to your method of projections, which is nothing but "uh, I think he will perform like X". Have you regressed the "uh, I think" projection system over thousands of player seasons like FG has? Have you built one of the most popular fan sites based on your "uh, I think" projections? Have MLB teams hired analysts who use your "uh, I think" method of analysis?
Almost certainly not, but sure, your "uh, I think" projections are as good as FG's.
I am not relying on my analytical skills. I am deferring to experts in the field because I know they know more than me. I don't argue with experts. I prefer that to the "uh, I think" projections you subscribe to. I'm willing to bet any amount of money MLB teams do too.
