"An annual rite of late winter me is to pick up of Bill James's stuff and look at it. I have friends who religously quote James as if were a sacred writing. He does manage to put the game of baseball into a framework that causes you think outside the lines so to speak. He is a pioneer in making stats really show the value of a player. I usually pass through the stats because they bore me a little, but his commentary on players are fun to read."
"There was some cool stuff in it. Maybe I will refer back to it again. The problem was it was 90% stuff easily found on the Internet and I probably won't bother to look for information not found on the Internet ever again."
"I like this book, but his projections are always way too optimistic. The average team should be .500 by definition, and yet if you add up the average teams wins and losses based on his numbers, the average team would win way more than 50% of their games. At the samem time, every year's handbook has plenty of insight into new ways of looking at things, and while I have issues with his current way of doing projections, his whole approach is clearly brilliant."
