About This Page

I will, at intervals, make changes or additions to this site. Because visitors here cannot be expected to scan the entire site every time they visit, I here collect notes on the changes. Any given note will be just a brief summary of the change it records, but will point to the page and heading where the changed (or added) text lies. The notes are in chronological order, newest first.

The two tables, recommended batters and recommended pitchers, each with 2026 stats for each listed man, automatically update those stats daily, and there are no notes here on such stat changes (but there will be notes if there are changes in who is listed).

Also, I do not note changes owing to minor stylistic changes, grammar or syntax, or typo corrections.

2026-09-21

Current-year stats embedded in the per-player discussions have been updated to today’s numbers, and the discussions with updates have been slightly amended to reflect those changes (nothing major). Philip Abner was dropped from the list of possibles.
