How the projections are built

Every player projection blends six weighted inputs: Vegas implied team total, versus starting pitcher "vsSP" opposing pitcher strength (actual history and baseline platoon and K mismatch factoring for hitters; opposing-lineup wOBA for pitchers), park factor, weather (wind direction and temperature), environmental splits (home/away, night/day, and grass/turf), and recent form (last-14-day FPPG). See the methodology page for the full formula and DFS glossary for term definitions.
