However the problem is that pitchers are also the most volatile and injury prone, if you could guarantee that the pitcher wouldn't get injured and would perform to his ability to the same degree that hitters do year after year then I would pay for pitchers. However the injury risk factors into drafters decisions. I think the only way to account for this (other than your splits now) would be to somehow how an injury index. As you can imagine that's impossible. Basically it comes down to projected value vs. real life value The reason why I think is beacause according to projections and year end stats Pitchers ARE the most valuable.
