Do you have the projections for other players too? I’m sure they exceeded what they were projected to do. clemens im sure did, maybe sosa and mcgwire too?

No, I don’t believe Bill James was publishing his career projections at that time (I can’t find them, anyway). It would be interesting to go back and run those numbers as well.
