Community Projection Breakdowns
Someone mentioned that they'd like to see PECOTA-style percentile breakdowns for our Community Projections. So here they are for the hitter we've done so far.

Someone mentioned that they'd like to see PECOTA-style percentile breakdowns for our Community Projections. So here they are for the hitter we've done so far.
There's a bunch of ways you could do this; 10 different people would probably get 10 different sets of numbers. I sorted by each stat, taking the 75th percentile batting average, then the 75th percentile OBP, etc. etc. and combining those for the 75th percentile projection. I think that makes the results most like PECOTA's. Sometimes that's counter-intuitive, for example, PECOTA projects higher strikeout rates in its 75th percentile projection than its 25th percentile projection. So I did it that way too. I counted predictions made after John's cutoff and didn't count any that didn't have all the stats John asked for. Anyway...
The top numbers are our community's results, the bottom are PECOTA.
