A new PECOTA spreadsheet was released today. Fantasy and Premium subscribers can download it by clicking here. If you haven't read Colin Wyers' article on the weighting changes that have been made this year, it's worth reviewing to fully appreciate these projections.
​The latest update includes:
- ​A link to the PECOTA glossary
- ​League (LG) affiliation column for all players
- ​Players' first and last names in separate columns
- ​Singles and total hits for batters
- ​Updated heights and weights that conform to the MLB.com listings (we were using the ones from the SABR master player registry)
- VORP column added for batters
We will continue to make tweaks and adjustments as necessary and will soon be publishing a FAQ article that addresses many of the comments and questions surrounding this week's release of PECOTA.
Projections for Japanese and Cuban players about to begin their first year in Major League Baseball are on their way as well. We'll have an update on those individuals this week.
Thank you for all your suggestions and support.

Sorry that happened, I know what a pain it is to check off all those names again!
I'll try to dig up your league based on your userid, and see if I can figure out if we still have the data, but I'm not optimistic. Can you send me the league ID (the ?cid= after the PFM URL, such as 6430 in this URL http://pfm.baseballprospectus.com/index.php?cid=6430), if you have a lot of leagues.
For issues with individual leagues such as this, people can feel free to use the Contact Us form and send them to me directly, though I'll read these comments, also.

I would surmise that would keep values from getting too out of whack.
i am looking for the total number of projected singles
i am not able to find this stat in the spreadsheet
2. TB (total bases) is not correct for most players
3. TB = 1B + (2B*2) + (3B*3) + (HR*4)
4. only about 10% of players have correct TB
2. I assume the WARP column still needs to be adjusted for the estimated playing time shown in the PA column (e.g., Manny Ramirez with 2.9WARP in only 250PA?)
Thanks
I am hopeful that adding the SS/Sim value is still on your "to do" list for all the Scoresheet and sim players out there.
If I order now, would it be likely/definitely delivered in the US by February 28?
Thanks very much.
