Baseball Forecaster, Prospectus or other?

[watchtower41]

For those of you who rely on these types of books and mags in the past, which stat or forecasting books do you find particularly helpful with fantasy baseball projections, drafts and preparation??

 

 

I've found several different published efforts for this year via amazon.... any insight about any of these would be greatly appreciated. For what it's worth, I am in 3 fantasy leagues, a standard cbs head to head, a yahoo roto 5x5, and a NL only keeper league.

 

 

Thanks for any input

The new Beckett book is decent.

I've used Beckett last year and it was a wonderful mag.

For me, I don't find any books or magazines helpful because most of the leagues I play in are 20-team leagues where 500 players are drafted. Too many magazines and books out there are only good for 12-team leagues.

I'd rather not purchase, its all just fancy projections which are hardly ever right.

 

You can find spreadsheet projections all over, fantasycafe has them, fangraphs, cbs, espn etc...

 

After looking at those I generally get a sense of who I'm targeting in the draft.

 

I'll even run through a number of mocks @ couchmanagers to go through a couple different scenarios.
