Its About Numbers ...

The numbers and lot of them. BA is the king of minor league baseball and is this is a collection of all the minor league stats. No special things, just a collection of numbers.

Better than the other baseball almanacs and from the makers of Baseball America Magazine

From the makers of Baseball America Magazine comes their annual 2006 almanac. Numerous insiders agree that this should be your source for fantasy baseball and the 2005-6 season. I have been very loyal to this almanac because Baseball America's layout seems to be better organized compared to others, such as Sporting News, ESPN, etc. If you subscribe to Baseball America Magazine you would be right to assume that their yearly almanac is of the same high quality and a must buy for the 2006 season. Their 2005 year in review is very well written and a great recap to prepare for opening day. This almanac will include stats on every team and virtually every player in the Majors. They also include Minor League teams, international teams, college teams and even high school teams. Don't be left out in the dark for the 2006 baseball season.

Good overview of the season

This was my first year of purchasing the annual Baseball America Almanac. In the past I had purchased other guides and almanacs, but always passed over the Baseball America due to loyalty to other guides. Well, now my loyalty is to Baseball America's annual Almanac. What do you get with this? A complete review of the MLB season, from off-season moves, regular season results and post-season results. You also get a team by team review which includes all of the minor league statistics. This is definitely a nice resource if you want to have an idea of who the next stars could be. But, the alamanac is not overwhelmed with statistics. The articles are well written by a variety of sports writers who cover each team.
