Daily Projections issue

stembot  4/2/2014 1:05 PM

I really like what you guys have done on the basketball side this season.

But the baseball side looks to be almost unusable right now. I will spend more time looking into it, as I just signed up last night. Example:

Trout tonight vs inexperienced LHP Paxton, only projected for 10 DK points. Can someone explain that to me?

Thanks

as a side note to this topic, when i uncheck the apply baseballmonster factors, it still only has trout at 10.25 points.

i think there is something screwed up with the double header, as in if you have both games checked, the proj points are added together. if you uncheck one of them, then trout is the top play of the day.

Trout is projected as the top position player overall with those 10+ daily points.

And there is a note on the top of the page for the double-header: For the double-header today, make sure to deselect the CLE @ OAK game that does not apply to your contests.

OK that doubleheader explains that... thanks

Someone like Dioner Navarro needs a higher projection. He murders lefties, has a great matchup tonight. Only 4.5 points projected.

Sorry, I was quoting ratio (4.5). Should be 2.5 Draftstreet points. Seems low.

He murdered LHP last season (.361/.451/.672 in 71 PA), but went for .185/.266/.330 vs LHP in 122 PA in the three prior seasons.

Fair enough. I don't know what sample is more meaningful, but I was just looking at his last 3 years' worth (which is only 125 PA vs LHP) and the .392 wOBA.
