Community Projection Results: Patterson, Tejada, Mora

COREY PATTERSON

My line: .251/.302/.413, 18 HR, 16 SB, 6 CS, 32 BB, 113 K

The community line (my projection included):

 AVG   OBP   SLG   HR      SB/CS     BB/K
.261  .299  .432   18    19/6   34/119

I think that's quite reasonable. We're expecting something of a rebound but still not quite a productive hitter. High-end Patterson is higher than that, but high-end seems very wishful.

MELVIN MORA

My line (lower than most): .281/.355/.467, 24 HR, 95 RBI, 64 BB

The community line:

 AVG   OBP   SLG   HR  RBI   BB
.301  .369  .489   25   89   60

Again, reasonable, basically a step up from 2005, so people seem to be expecting the late season surge Mora more than the rest of the season Mora, and since he was battling injury problems for part of the year, that's not a wild guess.

MIGUEL TEJADA

My line: .309/.358/.522, 41 2B, 30 HR, 110 RBI

The community line:

 AVG   OBP   SLG   2B   HR   RBI
.308  .355  .524   44   31   120

Basically the same as the line I'm predicting when totalled up. Tejada may have ruffled some feathers, but clearly we expect nothing less than great contributions from him.
