I think I’ve asked/suggested this before - you were nice enough to send me a ‘personal’ link, but could you put a link with the boxes to generate a ‘random’ box? Thanks

Sean - Do you have any idea when the 2008 minor league statistics will start to show up?
Thanks

Sean,
I love the organizational depth charts; they’re the easiest place to check up on minor leaguers. Is there any way you can make the names on those pages clickable to direct us to their bb-ref minor league player pages?
Thanks,
Danny

I have noticed some errors in the Games Behind listed in box scores this year. For instance, Arizona (8-2) beat Colorado (4-6), yet the Rockies are listed as 2 GB rather than 4 GB.

Most of the 2007 pages don’t have the appropriate “Next Year” or “2008″ links yet. Easy to workaround, but a bit of a “Pet Peeve”.

Two suggestions:
1. More reports. For example, generate a list of players, and get their BtRuns for each age year.
Player, Age 22, Age 23, Age 24
Smith, 16, 23, 35
Jones, 0, 8, 45
etc
Is there a way to do this?
2. Player comparison. Who’s better? Select two players and have their numbers listed together. Interleave the years or stack.

I’d love to be able to compare players and line up their annual stats by seasonal age.

Is it possible to try to sell a ball on this website signed by Babe Ruth and Lou Gherig?

IWAS JUST DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE SITE,AND I NOTICED THAT WHEN YOU GO THROUGH THE HISTORICAL DAY-BY -DAY STANDINGS FOR A TEAM OR FOR A LEAGUE,THE DAY-BY-DAY WILD CARD STANDINGS ARE NOT DISPLAYED.I WAS LOOKING FOR MAJOR TEAM COMEBACKS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS,AND THIS OMISSION MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT TO CALCULATE HOW GREAT OF A COMEBACK A TEAM IN THE WC ERA-(95-PRESENT) MADE TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS-ANY FEEDBACK WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED-GO DODGERS! THANK YOU

Is there a way to do an OR with the event finder? For example, I am looking for plate appearances with 0 outs OR with 1 out. Possible? Or do I have to do two searches?
Comment by King James IV — June 19, 2008 @ 1:30 pm
You would have to do two searches
Comment by Sean — June 23, 2008 @ 1:49 pm
On the PI results page, can you also show the number of results returned at the top of the results page (maybe near the “next 200″ button?
The number of results is shown the bottom, but many searches are designed to find out “how many times has this happened?” It would be convenient to have it at the top of the page so no scrolling would be necessary, particularly if doing several searches.
Thanks.

retrosheet has added two more full seasons: 1954 & 1955. What’s the timeline on included that data in the game logs and splits here?
Comment by DavidRF — July 8, 2008 @ 4:51 pm
I think the one year park factor for Texas is a mistake - as of now it shows a 97 BPF, though the Rangers and their opponents have scored 12.4 per game at home, and 10.6 on the road.

Two things. I noticed there was no box for the Boston - New York game from Sunday night 7/27. That game seems to be missing from the Red Sox game log etc …
Also, what happened to the batter - pitcher match-ups from post-season? The info used to be included with the regular season match-ups. Now I can’t even find them when I go to the post-season sections for individual players.
Thanks.

I think a split that shows a players stats from each team he has played for would be helpful. And showing a pitcher’s whip on the team page would be nice.

Can you do the season finder using months/before & after all-star game? So I can find out who hit the most hrs before the all-star game or in the month of June? Thanks
