I've fallen down a rabbit hole again. I am a novice with MySQL, but my questions have more to do with specific OOTP data than with SQL itself (I have books and the internet for that). Cross-posting to the General forum too, as I am not sure how much traffic this sub-forum gets, so trying my luck there as well.

1. On the players_career_batting _stats table, there is a field called split_id, and it effectively breaks a player's season into different records. In most cases, the player is on the same team in the same year for these splits. My question is, how do I interpret these splits? What do they mean?

2. Where can I find players' historical salaries? The players_contract table seems to only show the values for their current contracts.

Thanks!
