1916-071407

Features of this second edition of 1916 include:

1. Estimated times caught stealing (CS) stats for 511 players.  (Fifty-two other players have recorded CS totals.)
2. Retrosheet as-played game schedule
3. Retrosheet transactions
4. Composite players for those involved in trades.

This database is populated fully with player stats and matches the Lahman 5.3 database.  In some instances, like outfielder splits or a few times for caught-stealing figures, numbers were drawn from Retrosheet or Baseball Prospectus.  

The DMB organizer information has been completed forteams, parks, players, leagues, default eras, and schedule.

Stephen Drake adjusted the player ratings and worked on the team roster and manager profile.

The saved lineups for each team have been generated through a DMB feature.  These lineups will be updated soon from SABRs Deadball Stars books and from Leadoff Batters of Major League Baseball by Herman Krabbenhoft.

More park images will be added soon.

See the organizer note, About the Wiki Seasons Project, to learn more about the wiki concept for DMB database development.
