Salaries data stops at 2016

Open prof-anderson opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

I'm using Lahman package 9.0.0. It appears that Salaries data is stuck at 2016.

> library(Lahman)
> summary(Salaries$yearID)
   Min. 1st Qu.  Median    Mean 3rd Qu.    Max. 
   1985    1994    2001    2001    2009    2016

I can't see any documentation on this in R package documentation or at Sean Lahman's web site. Is this part of the dataset no longer being updated in the master dataset? If so, it is unfortunate given Michael Friendly's nice vignette, Team Payroll and the World Series.

Some of the supplementary tables are not actively maintained. But if anyone would luck to update them, you can just submit it to the Baseball Databank through GitHub.:
