Nice find, that's super weird because my overall hitter rankings were copied straight from my positional rankings, hopefully none of the actual projections got mixed up. I'm just gonna delete ages in overall hitting rankings, gonna take too much time to go through and check them one by one. Thanks.
So combining the z-scores (W,S,K,ERA,WHIP) on the top 150 or so pitchers in your list, Madison Bumgarner comes out ranked 9th among all pitchers (5.01 - top is kershaw at 8.27). He's ahead of guys like Felix Hernandez (4.94), Jered Weaver (4.77), Matt Cain (4.26), and Dan Haren (4.92). Also, that z-score is much larger than the combined z-score you get from the WOC spreadsheet (2.83, high is Halladay at 9.56) or Tavish's spreadsheet (3.73, high is Kershaw at 8.41).
That said, I was curious, why are you so much higher on Bumgarner than everyone else?

A ton of the difference will come from how the different utilities determine the initial player pool to run a std_dev off of.

I trimmed all 3 sources down to the same 158 player pool before doing any calculations.
