Why aren there up-to-date stats on each of the individual player pages?
There are two ways to update stats on a website: by hand or by database linking. Database linking takes sophisticated software coding and costs money to link to the professionally-kept statistical databases. We are in the alpha stages of creating a hybrid database where we enter certain info by hand on a daily basis, and most of the stats update themselves. However, that’s still in the very early stages. At this point, I still enter the stats by hand on the main pages of the site every day. As you might expect, to enter every player’s stats on his page on a daily basis by hand is a daunting task. Accordingly, at this point the best we can do is insert links to each player’s stats pages on MiLB.com, and enter the final player stats at the end of each season.
