    Instead of doing a post for each feature/suggestion, I figured I'd bundle a few into a single post. We're extensive users of the API and would love to see some of the following added in the upcoming year:

    • Captains Data - would be nice if the information about captains (requirements, boosts, etc) is included in the API somehow. It'd also be nice to have the flipside of this, "Eligible for Captains" and it would list the captains a card can be used with.
    • Season Eligibility - should show which seasons a card is/was eligible for or if the card is a "Core" card.
    • Batter Tendency - the community is super interested in this data, but its pretty hard to find - even in-game. It's an important enough attribute to deserve to be in the API.
    • Date Added - would be nice to be able to sort by newest/oldest cards.
    • API For Game History - currently, the only way to get this data is to scrape the website - which isn't any fun for anyone.

    There is a field for series_year which is, as far as I can tell, the year the card was added. I just pulled the latest Items listing and it has the Chisholm card shown as 2023 in the series_year field.

    series_year is the year on the card. Jazz Chisholm card was a 2023 Topps Now card. So the series year is 2023.
