We aren't going to do any fancy community projections this year. We won't go player-by-player and get your stat projections. Instead, I've made a list of all thirteen position players on the team and have come up with three questions regarding each.
Feel free to answer any or all of the projections, I think this could be fun and something we can look back on when the season ends. By the way, pitchers will go up tomorrow morning.
