Daily blurb
The sortable stats reports haven't gotten a lot of use for daily contest analysis yet - but I'll bet that's about to change!

The fantasy sortable stats framework was developed for RotoGuru.net more than ten years ago, when the focus was on full season salary cap baseball games. There was no particular reason to include data on scheduled starting pitchers, or scheduled teams, or left/right matchups, since the focus was to look at performance over the longer term.

I had already included Fanduel and Draft$treet player, salary, and position data in the sortable stats, but the format still seemed limited for daily contest analysis, since there was no way to screen out unscheduled teams, or non-starting pitchers. But as of today, that's no longer a limitation. You can now base your report on any daily schedule up to a week in advance. You can choose to review only the starting pitchers for a specific day, or look only at opposite handed hitters vs. those starting pitchers. You can still view fantasy points and averages over the past 7, 15, 30, and YTD. You can still filter by price. For example, if you want to find a Fanduel second baseman costing $3000 or less, facing an opposite handed pitcher today, sorting by total points over the past week, here's the list. And if you want the details of any matchup, hover your cursor over the player's name, and you should see the game details. Starting pitchers are based on those listed at ESPN.

I can't imagine setting a daily contest lineup without this reporting tool. Can you?
