Works good. I've put in the files I posted earlier as well as new ones I've found.

Seems like the errors mostly fall in two types - one, where the player is commonly known by their nickname, but the bbref minors ID of course uses their full name, such as Joseph "Joe" Garagiola.

The other category is players such as Forest Gregory Swindell, who of course is more popularly known by his middle name.

The cases where a newer and more accurate file doesn't use the bbref naming convention have been noted accordingly in the notes field.

I'm away this weekend but will be back at it next week.
