Customer Reviews

Love this book!

This book, and every one in the series is great. Great tips, insight and humour covering all the teams in MLB and every minor league "prospect". A must have for rotisserie league participants.

Outstanding book

The one reviewer made the comment that any such book should use "real" stats, instead of adjusted. That defies all principles of statistical analysis! Such an approach would render the book useless, and the reviewer's comments should be struck from this collection of reviews because that reviewer is obviously unqualified.I found the book incredibly useful, because the author made every attempt to render accurate information.

Excellent sources for stats and candid commentaries

Fantastic reference book for the fantasy baseball owner, provides honest evaluations of each teams organization and not just the high-profile players. Provides interesting projections and is willing to take risks - does not say that every player is the best or greatest - in fact is highly critical of most players reserving superlatives for super players. Well worth the money - just don't share with your fellow fantasy league team owners.

A must read for anyone even remotely interested in baseball.

This book is FUN to read, has great statistical analysis, and is BY FAR the best baseball annual I've ever seen. Can't wait for '99!!!

The Fantasy Baseball Owners Bible

Hands down the best and most comprehensive baseball book on the market today. With Davenport Translations, Vladimir Projections, Defensive Average and meaningful write-ups on all major AND minor league players, this is the only book you'll need when it comes to rotisserie/fantasy baseball.
