Too much to ask?

Do you have to enter each of these lines for pitching manually? Or do you take the box from milb.com?

If so, would it be possible to do the complete offensive line as well, with highlighted players lines in bold?

Love your minor summaries

Keep up the good work. BTW, Mitchinson is 23 in A+ because he lost 1.5 years in the Philly system due to a shoulder problem, now seemingly fine. He was supposed to be in AA this year for Philly, but Philly stupidly released him. Some farm systems just have no patience, and don’t believe in development. Their loss is our gain. Got to hand it to the A’s scouts. They can spot talent, and then we have coaches who can properly develop it. I don’t know if Mitchinson will ever pitch for the A’s or be used as trade bait, but BB will once again create baseball value out of another farm system’s mistake. The Oakland farm system is a pitching assembly line. Nothing else like it.
