Hello all - on my website, where I create a virtual complete set of 1978 Topps cards, I also try to set out each team's complete roster moves during the season. I am using the 1978 Sporting News and some local papers to assist, as there doesn't seem to be a resource available that has this information. You can easily find signings, releases, waiver claims, trades and DL trips, but the hardest to pin down are players' trips between the minors and the big clubs.

So my question is - has anyone already done this? For example, right now I am working on Oakland, and they seem have had more ups and downs during the year than most teams. Many are hard to pin down to specific dates. If there is anyone out there who has already done this, or who knows of a resource (aside from local papers, which I am pursuing as I have time) with this information, I would be most grateful if you could share it with me.

Thanks!
