Now that @jon-becker.com has the capability to build new RosterResource features and add to existing ones, we're making good progress on our Things To Do list. We can also react quickly to reader suggestions/feedback (i.e. see screenshot and link). SP Grid: www.fangraphs.com/roster-resou...

The latest RosterResource update: you can now filter the Probables Grid to show starters for the team displayed (as it always has) or starters *against* the team displayed:

I looked this up out of sheer curiosity and the last player to hit exactly five homers in exactly 488 at-bats was 1996 Marvin Benard (it's only happened four times ever)

I realized I am awful at explaining what exactly I do at @fangraphs.com , so I made a TikTok (really!) documenting it: www.tiktok.com/t/ZTkCerKTB/

Jon is working on bringing back the MLB Roster Grid, a popular feature that was a big part of MLBDepthCharts way back in the day. This should be a much better version with more capabilities. If you have any suggestions for what this feature should include, now is the time.

A very early first cut of my latest RosterResource project, the thing we get asked about the most: a way to look at all 30 teams at once! Working title is Roster Grid but I've also kicked around The All-30 View and Sicko Mode:

🚨 New Closer Depth Chart features at @fangraphs.com! 🚨 • Pitch and IP totals for last six days • Hover over a pitcher's outing for outing-specific stats • Results and Arsenal stats toggle • Filter your view to one team instead of having to scroll www.fangraphs.com/roster-resou...

it is personally annoying that MLB contracts are becoming NFL level fake numbers but on the other hand it’s good for @jon-becker.com’s career so who can say if it’s good or bad
