Rosters

[chrisetc21]

Problem.  I don't have excel so updating these spreadsheets properly and having them display correctly is a problem.  I'd like to see if I could get five or six people to help me post rosters on the board.  If we can get the help we can probably be done within a week or two and be ready for free agency in January. 

If we can get a consensus on that then I'll post an entire organization in the format we should use and everyone can copy the format and post rosters from the spreadsheet links.  Perhaps we can divy up the divisions.  Looking for feedback, thanks.

I can help out.... thinking it might be easier to have one person in charge of the entire process though.  Finding one person to take on the entire responsibility is the problem there, though.  I'd consider it, but need to brush up on the whole Google Docs side of things.

I'll take a division once we have the format how we want it.

I've got fairly extensive knowledge of excel. No experience with google docs though. Always willing to help.

Here's a link to one roster that I've done.

The information in parentheses for contracts is either the last year of the contract or the year of arbitration they're in. 

Let me know what you think or if we should change anything there.  Thanks.

Personally, I like this format better than Chris'

It is easier to read the contract/arb  info and I like how it list things
 like DOB,  age,  handedness, etc. It  is not uncommon  to encounter common
 names and  this info,  especially DOB,  helps identify players.

example -  David  Carpenter of the braves and angels systems.

I am not sure how I feel about organizing by position rather than minor league
 level. I like it because it makes it easier to see where you have positional depth
 in the minors but it also makes it harder to arrange players if we still have roster limits
 at each level.  This  roster setup would be nice if we just had one general minor league roster
 instead of different levels.

I like it split between the different A, AA, AAA levels as well.  Makes promoting up through the levels easier.  Makes some of the management functions easier as well.

I would like to add that the team counts on the top of my roster are done by a count formula. The roster limits are still easily counted this way while still adding an easier view of positional depth and simplifying promotion processing.  To me just changing one cell's value when promoting is much easier than and leaves less room for error than cutting and pasting.

 Also I have the ages self updating as well as hyperlinks to each players baseball reference page.
