This year's addition of the Lahman database is just as inaccurate as all the others. The only things they seem to get right are the player names and sometimes the birthdates.

Is it too much to ask for the ratings to be correct? How about the fielding %s and the baserunning info?

I do use the Lahman database just because there really is no other option but it requires ALOT of editing and the 2004 addition appears to be exactly the same as the 2003 addition. The pitchers were supposed to have WP totals and the fielding info was supposed to be improved but of course none of that was done. There were several other changes that were mentioned in the Readme file but I didn't see any of it reflected in what I downloaded.

What a joke.
