Download or read book Understanding Fantasy Baseball No Longer Just for Nerds written by Jason Johnson and published by Jason johnson. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, people that have had the most interest in fantasy baseball have been statistic junkies and lovers of baseball in general. People who immerse themselves into spreadsheets and stare at computer screens to develop strategies have made a name for themselves in the industry. With technological advancement in recent years however, this is no longer the case. Information is very accessible and easily compiled so that almost anyone can put together a team and compete in fantasy baseball with a reasonable amount of time, research, and luck. It is not nearly as difficult to find player statistics, trends, reports or any other type of information that you need to succeed in your league. When I began working on this book, many people asked me why I was writing it. What could this book offer that other published works didn’t already talk about? There is some truth to those questions. There are plenty of available works published that provide a tremendous amount of knowledge about fantasy baseball. Reading other fantasy baseball articles and books myself, I’ve found that many of them, while thorough, tend to neglect the fundamentals. They assume that any reader already has a good grasp of the basics. While that often may be the case, I believe it’s critically important not only to know the basics but to completely understand how to use them to your advantage. Having this book as a foundation, you can then better understand some of the more complex topics: sabermetrics, drafting, trading, etc. In this book I will provide insights into not only the basics of fantasy baseball, but will also delve into complex strategies and statistical analysis to help you succeed. In each section, I will first present the topic and then discuss how understanding it in detail will help you as a fantasy baseball team owner. I’m certain that even savvy fantasy baseball players will be able to take away at least a few insights to improve their overall fantasy baseball experience. In one section in particular, Relative Draft Value, I provide original, self-developed formulas and strategies that you simply can’t get anywhere else. I will be focusing primarily on season long leagues; however I have also dedicated a section to daily games which have become extremely popular and deserve discussion. In short, this book will go into almost everything you need to know to start yourself down a path to fantasy baseball success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What differentiates this new series of books from the books and magazines people have used in the past is that each of the six books focuses on a different league - 5x5 mixed, AL-only, NL-only, 4x4 mixed, AL-only, and NL-only. The projections and dollar values for players can vary up to 50% from league to league. Drafting with the help of a magazine not tailored to your league specifications is a recipe for disaster - yet millions of people do so every year. With your Fantasy Scouting Report in hand, you can rest assured that your projections are accurate. Each book also has special Quick Lists designed to help you find what you need in the limited time you have between picks. Players are ranked by actual scoring category points so you can compare players intelligently and quickly. Categories like ERA, WHIP, and BA are weighted for IP and AB, vitally important but often overlooked. Also included is a unique quantitative analysis of the best prospects for 2005.

"The Perfect Game: A Guide to Winning Fantasy Baseball" provides a guide to many of the key aspects of playing (and winning ) fantasy baseball. Part I presents the basic issues of organizing a league including the various scoring options, roster makeups, and performance categories that can be used. Part II examines data sources and statistics (such as the Average Draft Position, Estimated Auction Price, and Marginal Value of a Player) that an Owner can use in preparing for their draft or auction. Part III presents time-tested strategies for selecting a team. These include the Colton and Wolf SMART strategy, the Bennett 6S strategy, the Christian BC strategy, the Sweeney Gambit, and the bagging (or punting) of one or two categories. Part IV examines the issues of managing a team during the season including a detailed discussion of the Free Agent Acquisition Budget (FAAB), strategies for making trades, and the ethics of fantasy baseball.

Download or read book Future Value written by Eric Longenhagen and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented look inside the world of baseball scouting and evaluation from two of the industry's top prospect analysts For the modern Major League team, player evaluation is a complex, multi-pronged, high-tech pursuit. But far from becoming obsolete in this environment—as Michael Lewis' Moneyball once forecast—the role of the scout in today's game has evolved and even expanded. Rather than being the antithesis of a data-driven approach, scouting now represents an essential analytical component in a team's arsenal. Future Value is a thorough dive into baseball's changing world of talent acquisition and development, a world with its own language, methods, metrics, and madness. From rural high schools to elite amateur showcases, from the back fields of spring training to major league draft rooms, Eric Longenhagen and Kiley McDaniel break down the key systems and techniques used to assess talent. It's a process that has moved beyond the quintessential stopwatches and radar guns to include statistical models, countless measurable indicators, and a broader international reach. ?Practical and probing, discussing wide-ranging topics from tool grades to front office politics, this is an illuminating exploration of how to watch baseball and see the future.
Download or read book Podcasting Now written by Andrew J. Dagys and published by Course Technology. This book was released on 2006 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Podcasting is a combination of MP3 files, Internet radio, RSS ("Really Simple Syndication"), and iPods. MP3 files are typically individual tracks from music or comedy CDs, Internet radio is done with streaming audio in real time, and RSS lets your computer automatically keep track of new information posted on websites. Podcasting combines these technologies to create radio/music/talk programs that you can download and play on your computer or on an iPod or other portable player. Not only can you listen to podcasts, you can create and distribute your own podcasts without a lot of difficulty. Many of the techniques already used to publicize a website or a blog can be used to promote a podcast. In fact, one popular use for podcasting is as an audio blog. Podcasters can also include images and other data, so podcasting can be used for business as well as entertainment. It's possible to build training curriculum, product briefings, marketing presentations, and even new employee orientations with podcasts: the potential for this field is barely scratched.
