How is Jon Lester rated better when Hamels has better career numbers and has been putting up very good numbers for a few seasons now?
Cole Hamels 2014:
K/9: 8.71
BB/9: 2.59
HR/9: 0.62

Jon Lester 2014:
K/9: 9.01
BB/9: 1.97
HR/9: 0.66

In what respect is Hamels obviously better than Lester? They have very similar ratings in the roster set, which seems to me how it should be. Regardless, it's the PECOTA projection system that determines player ratings, not the roster team.
