DRaysBay Improbable Prediction Contest 2011 - Revisited

Improbable Predictions Contest 2011

Not sure if this was ever revisited? Sorry if it has been.

Were any right? Fun looking back and seeing how high

Can anybody tell me how close i was to my prediction of Joyce leading the team in SLG at the all star break? I dont need telling how close I was with my Briggy prediction of hitting more HR's in 2011 than Bartlett did in his Tampa career...

DRaysBay The Legend lives on....?


So the main theme these days on here is DJ not being up.

 

I have  seen numerous posts stating people are sick of seeing Fuld and Ruggs being on the field so I did a little research on our 4 full time OF's and it suprised me somewhat....

By full time, i mean everyone who plays the outfield minus BenZo.

Stats below are from 1st June

AVG Doubles Triples HRs OBP SLG BB% K% wOBA
Fuld 291 6 2 0 357 433 9.60% 16.65% 347
Joyce 172 7 0 4 222 354 5.90% 29.20% 253
Upton 233 3 0 8 298 400 8.50% 23.60% 303
Ruggiano 253 4 0 3 330 410 0.00% 23.25% 283

Via Fangraphs

 Suprisingly Fuld has been more than holding he's own (ok, so its not great competion at the moment). He leads the OF's in AVG, Triples, OBP, SLG, BB%, K% and wOBA over this period.

 

At the end of the day super Sam Babson Fuld is a 4th Outfielder and if if you take out his awful MOM he is putting up decent numbers. SO LAY OFF THE FULD!
