The projection as it was published, not as we would write it today.

Every number below was frozen before the first pitch and has not been touched since. Nothing is recomputed with today’s model, so a night that went badly still reads badly. Pick any night and check us.

4 of 4

Pitcher	Projected	80% range	Actual	Miss	Big night
Drew RasmussenHe collects strikeouts at a league-average clip (24%), facing a lineup that rarely strikes out (18%) and keeps putting the ball in play, but we plan on about 77 pitches from him, so his night ends early.	5	2–7	7	-2.0	6% → no
Foster GriffinHe'd rather get quick outs than chase strikeouts, whiffing just 19% of hitters, facing a pesky lineup that puts everything in play (19% strikeout rate), but we plan on about 66 pitches from him, so his night ends early.	3	1–5	3	0.0	1% → no
Logan HendersonHe brings real swing-and-miss stuff, with 28% of hitters striking out against him, facing a tough lineup to put away (20%), the kind that fouls off the good ones, but we plan on about 74 pitches from him, so his night ends early.	6	3–8	2	+4.0	19% → no
Yoshinobu YamamotoHe collects strikeouts at a league-average clip (25%), facing a lineup that strikes out about as often as anyone (22%), but we plan on about 75 pitches from him, so his night ends early.	6	3–8	1	+5.0	19% → no

Miss is projected minus actual: positive means we projected more strikeouts than he threw. An actual shown in red landed outside its 80% range. Openers and short assignments are voided and never counted.
