Here's a run-down of projections for Marlon Byrd. ZIPS is park-specific, so that would be changed if he moved to Wrigley. I decided not to include PECOTA '07 since the projections are very pessimistic - and he out-performed them last year.
ZIPS 288/344/443
CHONE 275/337/428
MARCEL 275/336/414
JAMES 279/339/420
CBS 273/334/396
average 278/338/420
Again with the 760 OPS.
He's a below average hitter - only breaking 100 in OPS+ twice - last year, and 2003. Heck, those were the only years he broke 87.
To look at fielding, I chose David Pinto's PMR. I threw in a few other CF's for reference.
Felix Pie 106.43 (3rd of 42)
Melky Cabrera 98.71 (27)
Nick Swisher 95.90 (36)
Marlon Byrd 95.25 (37)
Not good. Hopefully this is all just a bogus rumor. I'd rather they put Fukudome in center against lefties, with Murton getting the start in right.
