Community Projections: Way Off On Pedroia

by Ben Buchanan on Nov 13, 2010 6:01 AM EST in Community Projections

High on OBP, low on SLG, and one prescient homer answer from a non-believer who got lucky. Lucky I say!

Nobody guessed that Petey would miss a ton of playing time this season, but even if we did, we probably wouldn't guess he'd go down after a three homer game. His OPS rose nearly 100 points in the first 25 days of July. It's just too bad we didn't get to see if there were greater heights awaiting Pedroia.

Here's the season stat line, abbreviated though it may be:

	G	AB	R	H	2B	3B	HR	RBI	BB	K	SB	CS	AVG	OBP	SLG
2010 - Dustin Pedroia	75	302	53	87	24	1	12	41	37	38	9	1	.288	.367	.493

And here's how all of you did:

While mystman is the only one flashing red, he had a full serving of plate appearances next to Pedey's name, so I'm gonna go with theartolater instead. Overall, though, ugly, ugly, ugly. Let's hope the next set are better.

No sir. So when were these projections done? Clearly I completely missed them. :-P

A week or two before the season began I believe.

Damn

I’d rather have hit the nail on the head with the plate appearances…..12 HRS? What was I thinking?
