Community Projection: Zach Duke

Duke pitched 3 2/3 decent innings today and was already a good bet to make the rotation, so let's project him. Predict his 2009 innings pitched, strikeouts, walks and ERA, in that order in the comments. As a bonus, guess opponents' on-base percentage against Duke.

Here are the results of the community projections so far, including the Andrew McCutchen projection, which is now closed:

Paul Maholm SP 184.3 IP, 132K, 58BB, 4.00 ERA 12 wins 180.7 IP, 120K, 60BB, 4.53 ERA
Matt Capps RP 64.3 IP, 55K, 13BB, 3.13 ERA 26 saves 71.7 IP, 55K, 13BB, 3.25 ERA

The McCutchen projection is pretty reasonable. PECOTA's projection (subscription required) is virtually identical to ours, at least in terms of the rate stats. I think the projection for 169 at bats may be a bit pessimistic, if anything.
