Our stats just arrived 30 minutes ago and they're updating as I type this. Should be completed in maybe 5 minutes. Typically between 4am – 6am is when the stats should be updated.

There are definitely more complicated ways of doing this, but just a simple split, or what you think should be the split between pitcher/fielder will get you pretty close.

In last nights Cub game in the 9th inning, Geoff Blum hit a fliner that bounced of Milton Bradley's glove and was somehow ruled a hit. Blum's "hit" raised the WPA from 9.2% to 21.2%. What would be the accurate conclusion for what Milton Bradley's poor defense cost the Cubs on that one particular play? This might be a dumb question.

Then I would have some where to say "holy crap. 6 line drive hits in the span of 5 innings is not a good way to start the season."

We're working on it, but things seem to be running mostly ok right now, with the few things you mentioned are missing, and that weird game error in the Mets game which is being investigated.
