SPECULATOR: In-season "UP:" projections, 2023
May 17 2023
UP: (and DN:) projections are regularly tacked on the end of player boxes in the Baseball Forecaster. They’re intended to reflect a ceiling (or floor) beyond the accompanying preseason projection—where the skills warrant it, of course. From the book:

We broke down the preseason UP: lists for batters and pitchers from the 2023 book, which was released last November. Now that we’ve exercised excruciating patience for seven-plus weeks, it’s time to cook up a new batch of "UP-siders" based on the early returns.
