Description: lahman-updater
        ==============
        
        Update the 2014 Lahman database to most recent data, including
        in-season.
        
        Uses data scrapes from baseball-reference and downloads from Chadwick
        Bureau.
        
        Can also be used to add expanded stats to prior years.
        
        Working but still in progress.
        
        Notes:
        ----------------------
        
        -  written for python 2.7.11
        -  requires spynner, beautifulsoup4 and pymysql
        -  Spynner is tough to install.  easy\_install spynner - spynner has no pip
        -  Edit data/db\_details.txt with your database access information.
        -  Run with –setup and set –strict if you prefer the 2014 Lahman schema.
        
        ISSUES:
        ~~~~~~
        
        -  spynner dependencies (PyQt and SIP) are problematic to install in virtualenvs
        -  Recommended to not use virtual env or to manually install packages.
        -  Potential (untested) vitualenv fix here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22640640/how-to-install-pyqt4-on-windows-using-pip
        -  Spynner throws errors that I've been unable to catch. This does not seem to affect performance.
