2009 Up And Running
After a bit of a delay, looks like everything is up and running with 2009 stats (all of one game). UZR is the only thing not yet updated and I’m hoping to start updating that either later this week, or during the weekend.
We had issues with live data last night, but we believe them to be resolved and plan to start having all the live games starting today. There might be a few issues to work through in the first week, but hopefully everything will 100% working by week 2 at the very latest. Thanks for your patience.
Oh, and as a peace offering we’ve snuck in 2002-2004 pitch type & velocity data.

I love the new pitch type stats! Surprised Randy Johnson only averaged 94.5 mph on fastballs in 2002. And Pedro at 90 mph? A testament to the greatness of his changeup, I suppose.
Pitch f/x was back then or was it something else?
