Talk about well-kept secrets!,
By William S. Roberts (Chicago) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Baseball Forecaster 2000 Annual Review (Mass Market Paperback)
Man, oh man. Where has this book been all these years I've been playing - and losing - at fantasy baseball? I've never seen it in the bookstores but this has got to be the absolute best approach to winning your league. I've never looked at stats this way before, but it sure makes sense that we've been evaluating players all wrong. Shandler has won experts leagues with it and heck, if Rob Neyer and John Hunt use it, there's got to be something to it.

Shandler Hits For The Cycle Again,
This review is from: Baseball Forecaster 2000 Annual Review (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is a must-have for any fantasy baseball participant. It offers concise reviews and predictions on most major leaguers in a frank and humorous way. His statistical approach is unique and almost always on the mark.
