UPDATE: The Snell projections are now closed.
Next up in our projections: Ian Snell. Will Snell get his homers allowed in check by showing some brains and not throwing 0-2 fastballs right down the middle? Will he be able to keep up his high strikeout rate?
Let me know in the comments by predicting Snell's 2007 innings pitched, ERA, strikeouts and walks.
The Zach Duke projections are still open. Xavier Nady is closed. Here are the results.
| NAME | POS. | COMMUNITY | ZiPS |

Wow. I think this may be a first - we're more pessimistic than ZiPS. PECOTA is slightly more optimistic even than ZiPS is. Maybe Nady's power-free couple of months in Pittsburgh are coloring our judgement too much?
