In Winning Fantasy Baseball, Larry Schechter discloses the secrets of his proven methods. Packed with commonsense, easy-to-use strategies for beginners through experienced players, Schechter supplies readers with a toolkit to achieve the most important thing in fantasy ball--winning!
Some have called Schechter one of the best fantasy baseball players in the world. He is a two-time winner of the CDM Sports national salary-cap challenge, having defeated 7,500 competitors in 2002 and 6,000 in 2005. He is also a six-time winner of the renowned Tout Wars experts league and a one-time winner of the USA Today-sponsored League of Alternative Baseball Reality (LABR).
Readers will learn directly from the champ everything they need to know about:
* how to project player stats;
* how to convert those stats into a specific value;
* strategy for snake drafts, and mono-league and mixed auctions;
* selecting teams using a salary cap;
* playing in keeper leagues;
* and performing in-season management.
Although the book is primarily about fantasy baseball, many of the concepts also apply to fantasy football and other fantasy sports.

This really is an excellent book on fantasy baseball for just about everyone- if you are a beginner Larry gives you the recipe to start from scratch. And even if you are the most experienced or successful fantasy player around, there will be something in this book that can help you, and certainly make you think. And Larry covers every format too- from single league auctions to salary cap games, to mixed league snake drafts, etc. For a sport as popular as fantasy baseball, there have been very few books really explaining how an expert puts together and maintains a team- until now. Seriously, if you play fantasy baseball and want to better your game, I think you should get this book. And then stay out of my league.

No longer do you have to buy a book or search for an article that explains draft/auction strategy, player valuation, in-season strategy, etc separately. Winning Fantasy Baseball has it all in one book. The draft and auction strategy sections were spot on and really drove home some very important points, while identifying many of the mistakes fantasy owners continue to make. Schechter's writing style is easy to read and understand and there is no doubt that your fantasy baseball skills will take a giant leap forward after reading.
