    Yes, officially Friday although the weekly projection files frequently are available on Thursday.

        Are this week's updates complete?

        Is there a place on the web site that posts the date of the most recent updates/projections?

        Thanks!

          Every year on Thursday night before Opening Weekend and the first Thursday night after Opening Day, there are many, many HQ users who need freshly updated projections.

          Instead, the night before many auctions tomorrow, HQ customers still have week old projections that show Jeff Bagwell with 175 AB's, C. Guzman with 194 AB's, Red Sox Choi still playing for the Dodgers, a DL bound Klesko with 436 AB's and even a retired M. Grissom with 97 AB's.

          Why doesn't HQ make the projections available on THURSDAY NIGHT just for these two weeks ?!? It would give many subscribers a chance to review the updated projections the night before the auction instead of just a few hours after work before a Friday night auction.

            There's a bit of a conflict here. We all want the projections sooner rather than later this time of year. Part of this is so that the moves made by MLB teams are reflected in the projections. HQ also wants ot make sure these moves are reflected in the projections. Thus, they want to wait as late as possible on Tursday to run teh projections to try and capture all of today's moves.

                      Thanks! And considering these are BBHQ's 'final' projections before the start of the season (and subject to months of scrutiny), I appreciate them being up so soon.

                        Does the custom draft guide update automatically as well? Should I assume it is up to date too?

                        Thanks.

                          1. These are not our final pre-season projections. We have one more set next week, for those leagues who draft late. Then we move into our balance-of-season projections.

                          2. All files have been updated except the Custom Draft Guides. Running into some problems right now because the traffic is so high. Hope to have that resolved very shortly.

                            Thanks Ron. It would be great if you could post a note when the custom guide is up to date.

                            thanks again.
