Real example from my Tout Wars AL-Only auction on Saturday. Kevin McGonigle’s projections had ranged from 9 to 17 HR. That gap surfaced in the Projection Divergence Engine in ProjectingX IQ and it directly led to me buying him. Here’s why the projections disagree. 🧵

The price of ProjectingX IQ has been reduced for the remainder of the season! ⚾️Quickly filter for skill changes like BatSpd and Barrel% gainers, or Stuff+ and pitch velocity decliners ⚾️Identify xwOBA underperformers and SIERA overachievers, plus more

Most of the top SIERA underperformers still sport bloated marks, but not all. Who are you buying?

Starting pitcher Stuff+ gainers from this week's Performance Intelligence update. Are you buying Jake Irvin despite the 8.00 ERA...but with a SwStk% and strikeout rate surge over a small sample so far?

Final Projection Intelligence update is now live. The edge now shifts from projections → signals. Performance Intelligence launches Apr 2: • Skill movement (bat speed, velocity) • Results vs skills (ERA vs SIERA/xERA, xwOBA gaps) Early season edges are different.

Projection Intelligence has been updated for this week (batters + pitchers). One thing that stood out: Some positions have almost no separation across tiers, while others fall off a cliff quickly. Which position do you think thins out the fastest in your drafts?
43
The gap between tiers isn’t linear, it’s positional. Some positions have cliffs. Others have plateaus. If you’re not measuring that, you’re guessing.

If a player’s projection jumps just because you moved him from 450 PA to 600 PA… you don’t have a projection. You have a playing time guess disguised as analysis.

The Projection Divergence Engine didn’t tell me to buy McGonigle. It showed me where projections disagreed, which forced me to investigate the assumption behind the forecasts. That investigation led directly to an auction decision. That’s the idea behind ProjectingX IQ.

This is what the Engine surfaced (since then, his low-end PA projections have increased, narrowing this range).

Consensus projections are comfortable. But the biggest draft edges often come from the players projection systems can’t agree on. Disagreement highlights where assumptions differ - and where the market may be overconfident.

Tout Wars AL auction tomorrow! Luckily, I'll have ProjectingX IQ to inject some intelligence into my brain.

Projection Intelligence update is live. One new signal: The projections' playing time forecasts disagree whether Kevin McGonigle opens the season as the Tigers' starting SS! Updated Batter + Pitcher platforms are available to subscribers. projectingx.com
