Looks like we’re gonna need a bot.

    I was actually just looking into it. The Lemmy API seems easy enough to use.
    I could probably have something that can at least create a game thread every day. The fancy live stats would be more challenging.
    The Orioles’ id in the MLB stats API is 110, which you’ll need to find their games.

      I’ve got no programming experience but let me just say you two are awesome for diving into this.

      Parsing through the live stats is where I’m at right now, the MLB API is actually super robust. I didn’t look at the Reddit bot though but that’d be a good starting point.

      Not to start a race though. I’m definitely taking my time to write this thing, so if you get a good chunk done with a GitHub repo up lemme know and I’d be down to abandon my NodeJs project to work on yours instead.

          Can’t you just have multiple accounts?

          By the way, if being a mod would help with any of this I can add you.
