fix(fetch): adjust the fetch script for the new FantasyPros tables #3

Closed aptmac closed 2 years ago

aptmac commented 2 years ago

There's a new base url for weekly projected score data, and luckily enough it doesn't use the new JavaScript tables (yet).

This PR addresses the new url, and adds a quick hack to eliminate a new table header they added.

Here's a preview for week 1 as of Friday night. Will need to keep an eye on Ekeler's status, and I'm not loving the Helaire pick, but the rest looks solid.

                      name position team  salary  points
0      Christian McCaffrey       RB  CAR    39.0    22.0
9             Travis Kelce       TE   KC    33.0    16.7
32             Jalen Hurts       QB  PHI    26.0    20.8
53           Austin Ekeler       RB  LAC    21.0    15.0
100          Tyler Lockett       WR  SEA    19.0    13.8
102           Keenan Allen       WR  LAC    18.0    13.5
104  Clyde Edwards-Helaire       RB   KC    18.0    13.9
168         Robby Anderson       WR  CAR    14.0    11.9
197    San Francisco 49ers      DEF   SF    12.0     7.4
Total used amount of salary cap: 200.0
Projected points: 135.0

The smell of football is in the air, it's finally here. đŸ§€

Edit: ran it again the next day, these picks look better IMO

Edit2: should have ran the first lineup, not that CEH was a lot better than Najee but Green Bay had a rough game .. went 5-1 regardless though.
