For over two decades, the brilliant Dan Szymborski has been publishing baseball projections, known as ZiPS projections, which is a loose acronym for "Szymborski Projection System," that provide an impressively accurate estimation of how each MLB player and therefore their teams will perform in the following season. Szymborski's model, which he refines year after year, has become one of the most trusted in the baseball world.
When it comes to the Milwaukee Brewers, Szymborski himself acknowledges that his model, which relies on data from the previous three or four seasons -- based on the age of the player in question -- often struggles to estimate the production of the young players on Milwaukee's roster.
