Site Updates
Anyway, use this thread to post and comments, concerns, or (dare I say) compliments you might have. Suggestions are of course welcome. Too many prospects (only 39!)? A better organization scheme? Let it fly. We're all socialists here.

It looks decent
Yovani Gallardo's first name is misspelled, though.

Wow
That's a little embarrassing. Thanks for catching it.

Oh well
I've done worse at 4:00 AM.

I like it!
Very handy stuff. Personally I liked going to Yahoo! for season stats, career stats, splits, etc., but I can learn to adjust. (You play enough fantasy sports, going to Yahoo! comes naturally.)
I wish the column were a little wider. Having each player run over for just a tiny link doesn't look to, well, fly. Since we won't get it to fit on one line, why not have the player info on the first line and the BBRef, THT, etc. links on the second line?
I guess it also makes the SBN roster obsolete. Any chance we can dump it?
On other SB sites, I've seen team-specific Rotoworld News widgets, and FP polls. Know anything about getting those up?
Thanks for all your work. It's great to have the info and links handy.

rotoworld widget
I looked into it, and it would be easy to set up.
i think it's friggin' ugly, though. I could be talked into it.
polll...i'll get on that.
Also, cheese.

Eh
I thought it was cool, but I don't remember much about the design. If it's going to uglify (I might be making that word up) the site, hey, leave it at the curb.

Then again
Wasn't this the site with Lane Bryant ads not too long ago? When did we suddenly get picky? :)

haha
if I had the power to axe the banner ads, I would.

stuff and stuff
Moving the links onto another line is a good idea. I wasn't having many of those at 4 in the morning.
Yahoo can be added, but I figured that BR and THT give you all the stats you're used to, plus the nerdy stuff. I know what you mean though; I've gotten used to using Yahoo because of fantasy also. Helpful hint: just type "yahoo [player name]" into the address bar and the page will load. Might mitigate the need to include too many links.
We can dump the SBN roster widget; I just wanted to leave it up for comparison.
Thanks for the feedback.

I like it so far
For one, the first analysis I see bashes Yost for keeping CV in so long. (I was wondering that too.)
Second, it has a nice nugget about Braun and homers: one home run every 7 ABs against LHP, one home run every 18 ABs against RHP. He's a monster.
Anyway, I like it, but I have no problems with ditching it if I'm outvoted.

I like it
Everything looks pretty good. I like having the option to go right to baseball-reference for my stats. Thanks

Nice work, I like it
The only issue is that when Ned juggles the lineup, the position player section at the top will probably have to be changed.
by Jordan M on Apr 11, 2008 12:27 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Right
On the previous SBN iteration, we had them listed by position number, but this just seemed more informative. Ned has been shockingly consistent with the lineups thus far; if he lets his inner juggler out, I may get too lazy to keep changing it and go back to listing it by position number or alphabetically.
He's extremely quick and good.

Can you
remove Bush for the starting rotation? Thanks, you're the best!
