Review: "Many people think they can pick players better than the real coaches and Fantasy Baseball lets them try their hand. Fantasy Baseball for Beginners: The Ultimate 'How-To' Guide is from Sam Hendricks, author of a Fantasy Football book in the same vein, applying his expertise this time to America's pastime. With a certain flare and wisdom, Hendricks explains everything you need to know to do well and succeed in fantasy baseball, stating a clear understanding of official MLB and traditional fantasy baseball rules. "Fantasy Baseball for Beginners" is a fine read, well worth considering for those who want to break into the hobby."

Fantasy Baseball For Beginners: The Ultimate "How-To" Guide includes explanations of MLB and fantasy baseball rules, draft tips, vital resources, and much more! It answers the age old questions of why play fantasy baseball. Where do I start? How do I pick the right league? And most important, how do I score points and who do I start each week?
