BP Unfiltered

Surely you didn't get to 6am on the day of the previously announced rollout and then make the decision to delay it? Could you have perhaps given us a bit more heads up? (I have told many a fantasy league owner over the weekend that I'd respond to their trade offers ... on Monday when my PFM-reliant spreadsheet is up & running.)

Thanks for keeping us posted-- open communication is the way to go!

So *you* did it? It's *your* fault???

(Thanks for the notice.)

Thanks for keeping us informed. Sounds like the right call.

Thanks for your perfectionism.
Will Minnesota's Tsuyoshi Nishioka be included in the depth charts or the PFM? He seems to be missing from PECOTA.

Thanks!

Sorta what dREaDS Fan said. Probably best to give us a schedule of inputs and tell us where you are regarding that, rather than even half-promising that you'll get to the end result by such-and-such a time.

This is Emma Span's fault, isn't it?

This reminds me of the classic job interview question- "So, tell me what is your greatest weakness?" Everyone always answers some version of I care too much or I'm too much of a perfectionist or I work too hard.

I love the products when they work, but I wish I could work in a profession where you can give yourself a deadline, make it public, then give yourself an extension and the response is largely "thanks for the heads up."

First time PECOTA user. Looking at the 2011 spreadsheet, why are the projections so low this year - no pitcher with over 15 wins, only 1 or 2 hitters with over 110 rbi, etc? Is that normal, are they still developing, or what's up?

Wow. You'd think he'd posted that everyone's insulin supply would be delayed a week.

I guess there's nothing in the world that can't be complained about.

Grab some popcorn and watch the comments fly by...

W.W.Keeler would be 139 this season. He might have been an upgrade at 3B last year, but he definitely would NOT be an upgrade over Markakis ;-D

Only problem with that is my keeper decisions are due tonight!

any idea when upside will arrive?

OK everyone, sing it with me ...

"Irredeemable . . . that's what you are . . ."

Since I am sitting on a trade, I have to ask. Is there any reason to think the PFM won't be up and running tomorrow? A little heads up might soften the blow.

So, Depth Charts and PFM are listed as having been updated but ... they don't seem to have actually been updated. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

I see a note that says "last update 02-16" but I a not seeing the 2011 update anywhere. Is it not happening today or am I just looking in the wrong place? Or both?

Thank goodness.

Oh how accurate your metaphor turned out to be...

So T minus 3 hours and 19 minutes. Let's hope the perfectionists iron our all the bugs and data released is accurate.

2011 PFM and depth charts - directed by Julie Taymor, Music by Bono and the Edge.

Bugs still on the fantasy 'points' side. And I'm sure small ones still elsewhere. For example, PECOTA has Latos throwing only 91 innings, and it looks to me like PFM has him somewhere around 200 IP.

The last couple of comments seem to be discussing the PFM as if it's up and running, but I still get the "Under construction" message. Am I missing something?

Yeah, me too. I'm still getting the "under construction" sign

OK, numbers don't make sense yet($26 total budget and PFM suggests I bid $24+ for Hanley Ramirez), but there a really like:
The 'i' information dots are great - thank you
The multiple team entry option on the saved page is also a plus.
