Projected Lineups vs RHP/LHP (via RosterResource)

Here’s a quick primer on how I determine what is a team’s “Go-To Projected Lineup”.

During the offseason, I look at stats, 1-yr/3-yr/career splits, trends, usage, potential platoon partners, quotes from a manager or GM, etc. and come up with my best guess for a team’s Opening Day lineup. Once the games begin, the adjustments made will mostly be based on trends with the aforementioned factors playing a bigger part immediately after a roster change is announced and before we see an actual lineup that gives us the best indication of what they’ll do moving forward.

Our goal is to build a new RosterResource feature that will show regularly updated lineup projections versus RHP and LHP. It will include current stats (vs RHP/LHP), previous 3-year stats (vs RHP/LHP), and ZIPS projections (vs RHP/LHP) and will have tabs for each team. But the timetable is still to be determined. Until then, this page will be the temporary home. Bookmark if you plan on visiting often.
