that I entered this years numbers correctly I get the following results for the 110 players:<br \/>\nMy predicted average BA\/OBP\/SLG was .281\/.356\/.463, the actual was .278\/.358\/.456 so I was a little high on the BA and power and a little low on &#8220;batting eye&#8221;.<br \/>\nThe average deviations in my picks for BA\/OBP\/SLG were 26.7\/30.2\/58.2 points.<br \/>\nIf you eliminate David Ortiz (0 his 5BB, just 20AB) the deviations drop to 24.2\/28.9\/54.3.<br \/>\nThe RMSE for BA\/OBP\/SLG was 40.47\/38.7\/80.3. Without David Ortiz, these errors dropped to 29.7\/35.3\/66.2, a little worse than <a href=\"http:\/\/www.baseballprospectus.com\/news\/19990201brooks.html\"><u><span style=\"color: #000080\">last year&#8217;s study<\/span><\/u><\/a> average, 28.7\/31.4\/60.0.<br \/>\nThe errors for ISA (OBP-BA) and ISO (SLG-BA) were MSE: 17.0\/40.3, RMSE: 23.1\/50.7. Without David Ortiz, these drop to MSE: 16.1\/38.9, RMSE:20.1\/47.53. The average of the errors in BA,ISA,ISO was, for MSE: 26.4, for RMSE: 32.4. The MSE was slightly worse than the average 1998 study participant, the RMSE was slightly less than the average. Both were worse than the computer projections.<br \/>\nThe errors in OPS were MSE: 81.9, RMSE: 111.7. Without Ortiz &#8211; MSE: 76.7, RMSE: 93.3.<br \/>\nI was surprised that I hit six battings averages on the nose, including three Rockies.<\/p>\n<p>60 starting pitchers to project.
