Great stuff Zach! I've definitely learned and been able to use a lot from what you've done. Wondering if you have a way of pulling projections in automatically from different sites ( esp ones with logins needed). I can do it for Fangraphs and that is it. Haven't figured out any of the others.

I have thought a lot about this using IMPORTDATA or IMPORTHTML to pipe in stats. You could in theory build a lazy fantasy platform with a daily upload of stats. What are you using to get your Fangraphs projections?

I am actually using an extension (Coupler.io) and via developer tools you can copy the GET link and paste using JSON choice. The extension is timed to check every morning. Works really well. Took me a long time to figure it out

I should add I've tried all the IMPORTS and IMPORTHTML gives only 30 lines of data and IMPORTXML does same with funky appearance. This is all with Fangraphs.
