Our 3-year-old partnership with STATS, Inc. has resulted in the addition of 12 statistical categories and a full inch to the width of the Baseball Register. We have added HBP, GDP, CS, OBP, SLG and OPS for position players, and WHIP, HLD, HR, IBB, SV OPP and AVG for pitchers. We’ve also added left/right splits for every player. Our statistical and career leaders sections list A.L. and N.L. leaders in far too many categories to mention here. We also give you every manager’s history and tendencies. The Register includes every player who logged at least one MLB game in 2004, and selected MLB players who missed all of 2004 due to injury or other reasons. Finally, our editors and Fantasy Source online personnel -- who live and breathe baseball 365 days a year -- take these stats, season them with their own opinions and analysis and convert them into player rankings and fantasy dollar values for 560 players. The Register still features alphabetical tabs that make finding any player quick and easy, as well as an easy-on-the-eyes font and paper stock. It's the perfect blend of old and new, but this is not your father’s Baseball Register.

Just what you'd expect,

This review is from: Baseball Register 2005 Edition (Baseball Register & Fantasy Handbook) (Paperback)
If you're looking for a quick, handy reference guide to current players, this is a pretty good source. Included are the regular season and postseason stats for anyone who appeared in the majors in 2004. Don't expect to see advanced stats like VORP or EqERA, but there are items like lefty-righty batting and pitching breakdowns.
For a traditional stats publication, TSN has done a decent job. If you need something with more Sabermetric info, I'd suggest waiting for Prospectus, or using the BP site.

Excellent Baseball Statistics Reference,
By Don Pritchard "Manufacturing Systems Professi... (Westminster, CO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Baseball Register 2005 Edition (Baseball Register & Fantasy Handbook) (Paperback)
The Sporting News publishes several outstanding sports statistics books including this one for baseball, and at a very reasonable price. Any information including when and where the player has been in the past, what college he attended, where he was born, and on and on. I follow all professional sports editions, each year, including baseball, football, hockey and basketball.
