Projections just look at past performance and tries to make an educated guess about performance. If you don't think past performance tells us anything, you think that Counsell should be expected to hit just as good as Prince Fielder this year. Is that really what you think or have you put no effort into actually thinking about this stuff before dismissing it WITH BIG CAPS? Is that a serious assumption? Plus, players that have only been around 3 years shouldnt have enough info to make an educated guess on them.. Well I guess it could make the guess, but most likely it will be off.. I just dont like projections.
