2014 VEB Community Projection Results: Adam Wainwright

By VoxMediaUser199800

As expected with a player with a lot of experience, there isn't very much variance in the projections for Adam Wainwright. What is interesting to me is how different projections are similar in different ways. Oliver/ZiPS and Steamer/PECOTA both seem to have very similar algorithms to project wins, while Oliver/PECOTA and Steamer/ZiPS seem to have similar methods of projecting ERA.

Moving onto the VEB projections, there's a bigger spread than I would've anticipated. Wins range from 14-25, losses range from 5-12, IP range from 160-259, K/9 ranges from 7.00-8.76, BB/9 ranges from .90/2.50, and ERA ranges from 2.00-3.43. It's pretty ridiculous that the WORST projected BB/9 for Wainwright is 2.50, and that's a true testament to the ace's control.
