PlayerID

How do I get the PlayerID when downloading the projections?

[RAY@HQ]

Answered you via email a little while ago, Mike. Use the "proj+YTD" projections, download the CSV files. PlayerID is there.

[mikethain]

Great. Thanks! Sorry to post the question in 2 places.

PlayerID's have changed

It appears that the PlayerIDs have changed. Is this right? Also, do batters and pitchers use the sames IDs?

Thanks.

[RAY@HQ]

Id is broken in the new proj files. They haven't changed. We will fix ASAP.

[mikethain]

It's fixed now

The PlayerID is working now. Thanks Ray!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but is there any way to get a full list of currently assigned PlayerIDs, not just those of players who are projected to play this year? I'm a new subscriber who maintains an MS Access database for my fantasy leagues, and that would help me a lot with downloading and merging the HQ data.

[RAY@HQ]

Hmm, I don't think I have an easy way to generate that, sorry phrim.

Do BHQ PlayerIDs change year to year or does a player keep his throughout his career?

[RAY@HQ]

They don't change once assigned.

Excellent, thank-you.
