Anyone else think...

...baseball-reference.com's redesign completely sucks? Because I do.

It looks the same as basketball-reference now. So...I guess I'm used to that, and therefore I don't mind it.

Yes, I agree with you completely.

I like the new feature of drag-and-drop over a certain period on the player card to get partial career stats.

Something to keep in mind for SD player cards in the future.

I use it for my fantasy baseball notes on my Web site (meaning I link to the players on that site). I was shocked that Jordan Schafer (sp) did not have a card after his ML debut. I had to link to <gag> CBS Sportsline.

The new setup makes me think it's shifted to a higher gear. More potential, but not necessarily better at what it already could do. They need to do a better job of saying what this upgrade enables (or will enable). Or maybe I need to pay more attention. I didn't see anything about it though.

What ticked me off more than anything was that you could go forward or backward in year on practically any team page. It doesn't seem to work anymore. Either that or I'm dumb and haven't figure it out yet. Also, the type is too freaking small. That's probably fixable?

Oh, okay I am stupid. I have to admit it does look a little more professional this way.

(I'm glad you figured it out. It's kind of right where it used to be.)

That's not possible. If it was I would have seen it right away.

Truthiness.

this is the worst subject heading of all time. 12 year olds do this. half a sentence, the unimportant half, to pique your curiosity and cause you to click it, because you cant ever remember what its about. just call it "baseball-reference redesign", whats wrong with that? You do this every time. Buttery fail.

I was thinking it would be a juicy subject and sadly I found this. What a let down.

I'm a censored tease, okay? Deal with it.

One could say the Orioles are being teases right now as well.

to answer your question, it looks similar to basketball-ref.com now, and I never liked that site's look.

I prefer the old look.

But Jimmy Wynn is sponsored by SimD, so I'm delighted.
