  • 2nd Half Stats

    Does HQ post 2nd half stats (only) for all players in 2 files (1 for hitter; 1 for pitchers)? If so, where would it be at? If not, would that be something they'd can do? Thanks.

    BaseballHQ doesn't post those figures.

    The best suggestion I have is getting them from ESPN.com, but they display just 40 players at a time and it's not in a downloadable file, so that's a lot of cutting, pasting, and reformatting. Perhaps others will have better suggestions.

      Maybe baseball-reference.com?

        May I ask why?

        The 2nd half stats for all the players is in the Forecaster so it seems HQ has that data available...

          I don't know but I'd guess that the powers that be (which alas excludes me) don't see the demand for it. The first half / second half split is not in our daily data feed, so it'd have to be a file created annually.

            I looked there and didn't see it. They've got the split data by player and by league totals but I didn't see a way to get a file for just 1H or 2H stats for an entire league's worth of players.

              GG, you're right that we have the data for the book. To be honest, I'm not sure what format that's in... the book production input files are entirely separate from the web site. If you post back in this thread in about a month (toward the end of October), we'll be deep in book mode and I'll more easily be able to see what we can do.

              In the meantime, you can use MLB.com or ESPN.com's stats pages to get this data if you want.

                It's been about a month.

                Anything look possible.

                  Yeah, I can now answer the question, you can decide if this helps you:

                  We don't have a 2nd half data file. For the book, we have the full-season data file and a first-half data file, and use those to calculate the 2H line for each specific player... but there isn't a place where those 2H lines get rolled up into a single file.

                  The best thing we could do is give you that 1H file we use, and you could do the same math that we do to derive the 2H numbers. Warning, this is a raw data file, it's missing much of the data that would be included in our normal projection files. This is right from our stats provider, so nothing that we calculate is included... no $ values, no xERA, no BPV, heck, no ct%, bb%, k/9, etc. It's just the straight stats...

                  for hitters: AB, R, H, 2B/3B/HR, RBI, BB, K, SB/CS
                  for pitchers: W-L, G, GS, Sv, Hld, BS, IP, H, ER, HR, BB, K

                  If that's helpful to you, I can post it right here in the thread. Let me know.

                    www.dougstats.com has a second half file for those with Excel dexterity.

                      Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I appreciate the time you took to look into this. I'm going to pass on the stats. Thanks again though.
