The 2011 ZiPS Projection Season includes opening day organization rosters and projected 25-man active rosters; the 2011 schedule; projected statistics and ratings for over 2100 players generated by ZiPS (sZymborski Projection System), including many top prospects; and manager profiles set up with rotations, lineups, and depth charts that represent how the players were projected to be used during the 2011 season.
In the spring of 1998, Diamond Mind began publishing season files using projected batting and pitching statistics. For 2011, DMB has teamed up with Dan Syzmborski, who has been producing his own projections since 2002 using ZiPS (sZymborski Projection System).
At its core, ZiPS generates probabilistic models of baseball performances using a players past history, both in the majors and minors. These models take into account the individual characteristics of players, including age, speed, park, and other various measures of player type, and using large groups of players with similar characteristics in the past (a technique regularly used in weather forecasting and financial markets), attempts to predict how players will perform in the future.
The 2011 Projection Season is a companion product for the Diamond Mind Baseball game. To use this season file, you must also have Diamond Mind Baseball version 9 or 10. The game software provides you with all of the tools you need to play simulated games, make roster moves, produce dozens of statistical reports, generate league schedules, and more.
