2009 ZiPS Projection Disk Emergency Update

Sometimes, a final disk isn't quite a final disk.

Rod Miller has informed me of an extremely serious error in the final disk. I have Randy Johnson's splits reversed, causing him to be tougher against righties than lefties. I've uploaded a new copy of the final disk here which fixes this error. I've also fixed Madison Bumgarner's first name from Madixon to Madison, though that's a very small fix.

To leagues already running, please simply edit Randy Johnson's splits at the earliest possible convenience if you haven't noticed it already.

Why do you hate the Giants, Dan?

What should the numbers be?

I'm not going to download something to correct 1 player so please if the update is small post the changes so I can just edit what I need to and not have to worry about it. Thanks.

I added a picture of Johnson's correct profile.

What about Nick Swisher's pitching projections?

Thanks Dan, I appreciate it. :)

I don't get Dirk Hayhurst's nickname. What is the story behind "Non-Prospect"?

Dan, the database file is no longer available through the link above. Is there somewhere else that the file can be downloaded from?

Thanks.

Oops, ADrive downloads apparently expire after a few weeks. I'll upload it again to BTF FTP tonight.

"I don't get Dirk Hayhurst's nickname. What is the story behind "Non-Prospect"?"

He used to write a column for BA entitled "Diary of a Non-Prospect" or something along those lines. Good reading.

Link to the Hayhurst archive. Start with this one.

Has there been any interest in a BTF Diamond Mind league? Or is there one going on that I haven't been invited to participate in?

I'll say that if such a league were to exist I'd be interested in participating.

15. STEAGLES came to play Posted: August 11, 2009 at 07:44 PM (#3289660)

i've been extremely hesitant to join a second league, but i'd be all about a BTF DMB league.

16. RayDiPerna Posted: August 11, 2009 at 07:48 PM (#3289666)

Well, that does it. I'm out.

Ray,

djf runs the BTF Diamond Mind league and I think is looking for a manager or two. You should email him.

18. RayDiPerna Posted: August 11, 2009 at 07:57 PM (#3289686)

Thanks for the tip, Bernal. But would that require me to associate myself with the lounge?

19. Bernal Diaz has an angel on his shoulder. Posted: August 11, 2009 at 08:06 PM (#3289700)

No. Thank god.

20. Gaelan Posted: August 11, 2009 at 08:16 PM (#3289715)

Well, that does it. I'm out.

I was going to go for that kind of joke but couldn't make it work. Something about being nice or acknowledging that Ichiro is not a hall of famer or something. The problem is that neither proposition is plausible.

Maybe this post would be a good place to leave a message to future generations. Like a time capsule,

You know... since it's never going away.
