Daisuke Matsuzaka: Daisuke already has 110 ks on the season, while the game projects him to have 121 all year. Stuff needs a huge boost. On the flip side, he's already walked as many people as the game projects in a full season (36 to the game's 38), and his ERA is higher than projected.

The displays in the editor window for pitchers are
not projections for a full season; they are for 550 ABs against, or for about 140 IP. So the K projection for Bonderman or Beckett isn't in the low 100s for a full year.
For a 210 IP season, the projections in Cubby's set are:
Beckett- 169 K
Matsuzaka- 181 K
Bonderman- 181 K
Matsuzaka still seems short in Stuff; he's averaging over 1 K per inning. Bonderman is a touch short too, but Beckett is pretty close to his Boston performance over the past year and a half.
edit- on Matsuzaka, I agree Stuff should go up, and Control down.
