From 6697a9105eb4e53fabef5e71127e47cb751d62e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Lucey Date: Sun, 29 Mar 2026 21:27:53 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/8] feat: multi-pass player name matcher for salary data Add normalise_player_name() and match_player_ids() to R/utils.R. Three-pass matching strategy: Pass 1: exact 'Last, First' match Pass 2: normalised names (strips accents, suffixes, asterisks, expands initials JD->J D, fixes UTF-8 mojibake) Pass 3: year-active disambiguation for ambiguous names Improves USA Today match rate from ~77% to 95.5% and Spotrac from ~83% to 95.4%. Stars like Harper, Acuna, Altuve, Realmuto, Tatis now correctly matched. Update R/scrape.R and data-raw/salaries.R to use new matcher. Add 13 new tests in test-utils.R (35 total, 147 suite-wide).
