You guys act like I said this is truth about to happen. Chill, I'm just sharing the data in their report. I'm not saying it's flawless and going to happen, without fail. It's a projection. That's an estimate. It's a guess. And, it's not even my guess. Put the swords down, OK?

Let's take PECOTA for example. it predicted Wang to lead the team with 12 wins, if that's taken litterally then the Yankees are fucked, but the truth is it predicted the Yankees to win the AL east. it's REALETIVE. you need to LOOK AT WHAT THE OVERALL CONTEXT IS. and not just throw it out like the actual season final line.

Buccholz, 10 wins, Lester: 8 wins, Schilling, 10 wins. Add Chamberlain's 10 wins, and basically their four match our four. It seems, however, that projection systems have a difficult time projecting wins.
