Synopsis
The bestselling annual baseball preview from the smartest analysts in the business The essential guide to the 2012 baseball season is on deck now, and whether you're a fan or fantasy player--or both--you won't be properly informed without it. Baseball Prospectus 2012 brings together an elite group of analysts to provide the definitive look at the upcoming season in critical essays and commentary on the thirty teams, their managers, and more than sixty players and prospects from each team. Contains critical essays on each of the thirty teams and player comments for some sixty players for each of those teams Projects each player's stats for the coming season using the groundbreaking PECOTA projection system, which has been called ""perhaps the game's most accurate projection model"" ( Sports Illustrated ) From Baseball Prospectus, America's leading provider of statistical analysis for baseball Now in its seventeenth edition, this New York Times bestselling insider's guide remains hands down the most authoritative and entertaining book of its kind., The bestselling annual baseball preview from the smartest analysts in the business The essential guide to the 2012 baseball season is on deck now, and whether you're a fan or fantasy player-or both-you won't be properly informed without it., The 2012 Edition of the New York Times bestselling guide "The Best Book Of Its Kind." - Rob Neyer Now in its seventeenth edition, the Baseball Prospectus annual shows once again how it became the industry leader: the 2012 edition includes key stat categories, more controversial player predictions, and the kind of wise, witty baseball commentary that makes this phone-book-thick tome worth reading cover to cover. Baseball Prospectus 2012 provides fantasy players and insiders alike with uncannily prescient PECOTA projections, which Sports Illustrated has called "perhaps the game's most accurate projection model." Still, stats are just numbers if you don't see the larger context, and Baseball Prospectus brings together an elite team of analysts to provide the definitive look at all thirty teams-their players, their prospects, and their managers-to explain away flukes, hot streaks, injury-tainted numbers, park effects, and overrated prospects who won't be able to fool people in the Show like they have down on the farm. Nearly every Major League team has sought the advice of current or former Prospectus writers, and readers of Baseball Prospectus 2012 will understand what all those fans have been raving about. "If you're a baseball fan and you don't know what BP is, you're working in a mine without one of those helmets with the lights on it." - Keith Olbermann "For me, every year baseball begins with the big, brilliant, beautiful book you are holding in your hands right now." - Joe Posnanski " Baseball Prospectus continues to raise the bar for innovative baseball analysis every year." - Mark Shapiro , President, Cleveland Indians "If a general manager hasn't read Baseball Prospectus , he should be fired for incompetence." - Michael Lewis , author of Moneyball Baseball Prospectus 2011 correctly predicted: The collapse of 2010 stars Vernon Wells, Trevor Cahill, and Austin Jackson, as well as serious regression for Josh Hamilton and Ubaldo Jimenez Strong comebacks for Pablo Sandoval and Carlos Beltran, as well as Dan Haren's strong finish with the Angels being a better indicator of 2011 performance than his pre-trade struggles with the D-Backs Breakout seasons from Michael Pineda, Desmond Jennings, Danny Espinosa, Craig Kimbrel, and Jeremy Hellickson That Albert Pujols plus the Cardinals' starting rotation would still be a recipe for success That the Diamondbacks had a much brighter immediate future than the typical last-place club That Dave Dombrowski's roster restructuring in Detroit would lead the Tigers back into contention

- o***1 (1096)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseHave bought from this seller many times before & it always been a good experience-this time was no exception! Book was bought “buy it now” at an excellent price for a hardcover…shipping was pretty good & book was shipped in a bag type mailer that was reinforced by wrapping around the book twice …I was impressed by the condition of the book too! It was listed in the description as good but I felt the book could have been listed as “like new” (yes that good!) highly recommend this seller!
