2014 VEB Community Projection Results: Jaime Garcia

By VoxMediaUser199800 Mar 14, 2014, 10:30am EDT

For once, VEB comes out on the pessimistic side of projections. We have the lowest K/9, highest BB/9, and the 2nd highest ERA (after ZiPS). We seem to have a more pessimistic view (and, given his spring training, seemingly justifiably so), about his injury history than the professional projections, going deeper than just playing time issues.

	W	L	IP	K/9	BB/9	ERA
Oliver	8	5	117	7.05	2.30	3.45
Steamer	9	8	134	7.03	2.50	3.62
PECOTA	4	4	66	7.30	2.30	3.59
ZiPS	7	6	116	7.20	2.24	3.79
VEB	9	6	129	6.83	2.78	3.74

Again, a lot of variability in playing time for Jaime. Wins range from 1-15, losses range from 1-10, and IP range all the way from 15-210. There is little doubt that Jaime is a very good when healthy, but he very probably is not. Makes him a tough read.
