5 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource   December 10, 2001
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Great annual guide which statistically breaks down the 2001 season. There is no commentary just pure stats which speak for themselves. Every player who appeared in the Major Leagues is in there. If you are interested in whose season was killed by a few bad months, who tailed off very badly at the end, who's stats were inflated by a home park advantage this is the book for you. If you would rather have some else look at this same stats and summerize the season in a couple of sentances wait for the annual magazines that come out. If you want to decide for your self then grab it. If you like stats it will be something you look forward to every year.


1 out of 5 stars The most rotten book on the baseball stats market   April 27, 2001
 0 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought the book, so I could use it as a reference to last season's baseball action. But when I open the book, I see that only the batters with 325+ at bats has all of their statistics. The others has just Day/Night, Left/Right and a few of them has month-by-month's record. If you want to throw money out off the window, be my guest.


4 out of 5 stars a great book of stats   April 4, 1999
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

This book has almost every stat you can think of including teams and players. I think it should have some articles or stories in it.


3 out of 5 stars Lots of Batting/Pitching Stats, but nothing for fielding.   August 10, 1998
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The stats for pitching and batting are everything you could ask for, but I don't understand why there is absolutely nothing on fielding. It doesn't even list the position that the players play next to their name. Why not?
