I'm getting a starting bankroll of 882.06 for yesterday the 18th.
Wins and losses add up, but I can't figure out what's off.
You might want to double-check your results from the 17th.

882.06 is correct.  My mistake.

I have sent you a friend request. I may have similar data and more importantly a different way to utilize it. Most interested in your computer skills. I use bball reference daily but, haven't come across a coder that can spider. I do it all manually and it is excruciatingly slow. Please accept. Thanks.

Spider = download.  There are several pages of data available for each team every day.  The main team page has all the traditional stats for the team and each player.  If you click more stats next to batting, pitching and fielding, you'll get the more nerdy stats like adjusted batting runs or batting average on balls in play.  My program downloads all the team data from all pages and parses it (ie, cleans it up and drops it into spreadsheet format).

Sounds like you have a great tool for handicapping! Is it excel based?

Python based but it's easy to output the data into any format.  For example, I could easily make a .csv file if I wanted to bring the data into excel.
