5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, August 7, 2008
This review is from: Bridging the Statistical Gap (Paperback)
Not only is this book for baseball purists, but also for fantasy players and people interested in statistics. There is the perfect balance of information, examples, as well as humor.

After reading through it a few times, I suggest keeping a notepad accesible to jot down notes on different formulas that stick out or appear useful.
