    Probably the biggest surprise in the individual projections is the 2.0 WAR for Bethancourt. I'd be very happy with that.

    So 2 players with a projected OBP of .310 or higher. Nice!

    That .343 Stella! is projected to post would've been nice (and that is with his lowest walk rate EVER). Basically the same as Justin.

    I like what someone pointed out in the comments. Heyward ' s defense amounted to about 2 extra outs a month over an average right fielder.

    Too bad that doesn't factor in how base runners know they can't take extra bases on Heyward and have to respect his glove AND arm. That's why DRS is a better indicator.
    All you need is Hart and Cox.

    Besides that's not even what the comment said. It's that he made about two more plays than any other right fielder would make. He makes way more then 2 more plays per month over an average right fielder.

    And it doesn't even factor in turning double into singles by cutting balls off, etc.

    And the whole teams hitting .240. What a gigantic pile of suck.
