Probable Starts for Pitchers needs to be more up to date
Can we get Probable Starts for pitchers to be more up to date and go for a week in advance? Other stat sites handle this efficiently, how about STATS?

Lets see. You took the time to read the messeges and write a reply. But you don't want anyone to complain? Well I guess we could all post messeges like this is great. Golly Gee. But weres the fun in that? If you don't like it. Don't read it.
Kinda like people who complain about Playboy. How do you know if your not reading it?

Concerning probable starters, there is only one 12 hour period all week that this is relevant. That time is after we get our FAABs and before lineups are locked the next day. Aside from the next 3-4 days worth of starters, every site is guessing. For example, this week Odalis Perez was scheduled to throw on Thursday in Coors. Every site had it that way. On Tuesday, the Dodgers decided to insert Lima and hold Perez back for Friday. I benched Perez because of the Coors start and now will miss a his Friday start. I still think I did the right thing given all the information I had at the time. Long term projections are a guess at best and because we only have one day to make moves how much can it matter beyond Monday & Tuesday starts. Those starters are the only ones who might get a 2nd start in the week given the typical 5-days rest. And the weekend is well beyond any sites 90% projections.
As far as late stats are concerned, the only day that late stats have any real meaning is Sunday where FAABs could be effected. I look at stuff daily and have my Yahoo shadow league to follow up-to-the-minute standings but if STATs is a bit late, so what. As long as they have everything right for the Sunday FAAB tie resolutions and the weekely awards, being a few hours late isn't going to threaten world peace. I would like them updated by the time I get up each morning (and I am in Vienna Virginia) but if it isn't right until that evening, I think I can make it through the day.

The post was posted as a suggestion (not complaining). They have the option on the site but it only projects for Monday and Tuesday (If you are going to offer something at least do it right).
I understand that pitchers get switched around due to unknown circumstances(rainouts, coaches decisions, etc), but is it much to ask to get the PROJECTED starters for the entire week - (so we don't have to dig it up on another site who my starters are supposed to pitch against the coming week - decisions are based on this for most teams' 6 and 7 starters)
