Re: Scott's OSFM ZiPS Re-rated Rosters
Scott, let me know if this can help. It is the exact same ZiPS projections but in a much cleaner format. The calculations aren't exact, but they are pretty close to what rascoc had. Take a look.
I did not create the calculator myself. Someone else did last year. I simply took rascoc's ZiPS projections off of his spreadsheet and copied them over. I also copied onto the sheet all of Jeezy's (I think that is who posted it) fielding ratings and made it to where they will populate on the first page of the sheet.
It is as easy as can be. Just type in the players name and boom you get ratings.
Heads up. I have already edited some projections for guys like Josh Hamilton, Matt Kemp, Pujols, A-Roid, and maybe a few others. One thing I found is the projections are too low for average. It simply isn't accurate as many of the superstars are capable of hitting .330-.340 many years. So to get a more accurate projection, I take an average games played over 2009, 2010, and 2011. I take that number and divide it by the number of games played in 2010, 2011, and 2012 to get a multiplier. I then take each statistic (runs, hits, rbi's, homers, etc.) and multiply by the multiplier. Gives me extremely accurate results. On the splits page, I have been inputting their splits for the last two or three years to give me a more accurate contact and power rating.
Check it out. I believe without a shadow of a doubt this is the best calculator out there since Bahnzo's no longer works and requires manual input. If you have any ideas on other formulas that could be added or that could be changed, please let me know.
