2005 Fantistics Baseball Customer Testimonials

In our 2005 season ending survey we asked subscribers if they were interested in submitting a testimonial that we could publish:

(in alphabetical order)

A great tool for draft preparation and throughout the entire season.  Fantistics gave me the edge I needed win my first championship in three years. (Brent Wagar)

Absolutely wonderful advice and insight!  I finished first in both leagues I entered and was often the first one to key players that other managers had no clue about.  You get what you put into it and with the tremendous analysis from Fantistics,  I had a lot of ammunition to take down both leagues.  Unfortunately I told one manager about it because he was bugging me about my "Secret Weapon".  I can't say thanks enough.   (Jim Gillingham)

A big help with my draft, key help on injuries.... (Larry Moeller)

A great product! The rotation logs, the news summary and the articles make the season fun (John Lyons)

An invaluable tool for all levels of fantasy competition. (Marty Gunther)

Anthony Perri and his posse have once again proven that statistics and patience over a six month marathon will bear out.  Join the winning team at fantistics or join the ever growing list of people scratching their heads on how did they get beat! (Paul Reilly)

As complete and thorough of a service as there is.  Keen insight into player capabilities.  Excellent analysis of prospects.  We'll be back. (James Dati)

Awesome daily emails early enuff to get the scoop for all my boys daily! Great draft software. Been w/ for 5 or so years. Couldn't do without! (Don Menke)

Baseball Fantistics changed the way I look at players stats, increasing the value I get from each player. (jd eyrich)

Being a loyal baseball & football subscriber (3 years running), your site offers the most timely, reasoned analysis available to owners looking to keep ahead of their competitors.  Truly believe that Fantistics gives me the edge I need to consistently finish at or near the top in all my leagues.  Congratulations on another well-run, productive year and I look forward to utilizing your services in the future! (Bill Tucker)

Being based outside of the US, I find Fantastics Baseball does a great job in keeping me informed of what's happening and hence allowing me to keep my finger on the pulse... (Michael Law-Kun)

Best site info of any I have been with. (Farrell Hiatt)

CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU HAVE A AWESOME PRODUCT!!!! Now please make sure to cut your marketing budget so no one else finds out what a great job you guys do!!!!  There is absolutely no doubt that the primary reason that I am currently tied for 1st place in my league is directly attributable to Fantistics. Your preseason projections improved my draft, you’re in season player updates and strategy articles increased my knowledge which improved my in season moves. Finally your Prospect Central will allow me to draft minor leaguers that will impact my future teams. Thank you and I will continue to be a subscriber for years to come!!! (Tim Kelbel)

See the details of the Player Projections Software

Definitely sign me up for next year...blew away my league with projection software...Had such a large lead season was over by mid august (Gene Fritts)

Even though I didn't win or finish 2nd this year (I came in third) in my very competitive 11 team mixed 5X5 league, I still stand by my prior endorsement which is that if you are looking for a  systematic edge in fantasy baseball then it is absurd not to subscribe to Fantisitics! (Michael Terner)

Everything was great, i just had alot of players underperform.  i would also like to see something where they rank my players for keeper leagues averaging this years stats to last years or projected stats...  i did win it all last year.. maybe next year...thanks guys.. (garrett okita)

Excellent recommendations, particularly in the prospect and keeper categories. (Rod Steves)

Excellent site and service - Very timely and funny! (Ed Childs)

Excellent source of information that I can guarantee I won't tell my friends about. (Kirk Hardwick)

Fantasy Insider Baseball is the best fantasy baseball service that I have ever used. All four CBS league teams that I had making the four team playoffs, with one team being the League Champion. (Larry Shepherd)

Fantistics allowed me to evaluate the players and set a draft strategy based on an opinion that differed from my competition. I won a highly competitive league by selecting players who were highly respected by Fantistics, but they were not always the big name guys. Carpenter, Oswalt and Peavy anchored my pitching staff. Ortiz, Crawford, Young and C. Lee were my big hitters. My success is attributed to a great draft and minimal injuries to my key players. (ken cain)

Fantistics has great insight on a daily basis.  They were an integral part to me winning my league's regular season championship 3 years in a row. (Jim Wilcox)

Fantistics is my #1 resource for fantasy baseball.  Our private league is in its second year.  It is a 12 team league, with some serious dedicated fantasy players.  I have won the regular season title both years, I won our league's world series last year, and I have a big lead in this year's world series with three days to go.  Fantistics has definitely given me the edge! (Steve Clark)

"Fantistics kept me 2 steps ahead of the competition with their daily injury reports and prospect central." (jason smith)

FPI works. Trust them. (Brian Fink)

Great fantasy service. Even when I'm not doing well 'Fantistics' helps me keep my head in the game. (Robert Stein)

Great Job again Guys!!!!   The draft prep always helps and is very important is extremely important in my league since we do not have a lot of waivers and the other teams don't like to trade.   So I spend a lot of time looking over your information.     I went from last place June 1st to 1st place by September 1st.  60 point gain.  Mainly because I sit for a few hours every Sunday surfing your site.    Thanks! Joe (Joe Wollyung)

Great job!! no one could predict the second half implosions of carpenter and more than a few other starting arms! i blew away competition in the offensive groups. thanks, i'll be back!! (steve hollis)

Great service and provided me with the info and recommendations on how to win my league.  All you have to do is listen to the information given and make sure no one else in your league knows about insiders...... (Thomas Norris)

Great service.  Way more info than I can use, but it was great to have the resource.  Thanks for all your hard work in putting the reports together.  I also appreciate that every report was delivered in time for my daily decisions. (Carl B)

Great sight that is very helpful. (Barry Bland)

Great Stuff worth every penny... A great investment for a championship!!!! (Dave Johns)

Great Stuff...Everything fell into place this year! (Ryan Treat)

Great work in 2005. (Mike Libman)

Honestly I have gone from a baseball neophyte to an expert. My fellow league participants are always leaning on me for "information" that is obviously taken from you guys. I used to be a football guy, but now I am all about baseball-- funny thing is... its like extra income I probably should be reporting my winnings, since I do so well. (joe mabe)

I am very excited to have come in second in my league!  We keep six players each year.  My keepers?  Schilling, Kerry Wood, Oliver Perez, and Beltran were 4 of them.  What a distaster!  The only way I could've overcome this was through Fantistics.    The 14 day rotations are a blessing.  The other guys in my league look at CBSSportsline's THREE day rotation schedule.  CBS is always about 2 or 3 days behind the changes that are made by Lyle (at Fantistics).  I was able to pick up double starters a full week in advance of the other players in my league!  The daily e-mails are awesome, too!  I wake up (late) every day, grab a cup of coffee, and sit and read them before ANYTHING!  If a player goes down, I know it.  If a pitcher gets bumped up, pushed back, or scratched, I'm on it.  The info I get in the e-mails show up on my fantasy site about three days later!  I always laugh when I finally see it.  I would truly be lost without them!  Keep up the great work! (Joe Bistany)

I continue to be very impressed with the analysis provided by insiderbaseball.  It gives me the news in a timely fashion so I have one leg up on my competition. (Peter van Sluytman)

I didn't make trades of a couple players based on the overall projections (i.e., currently underperforming), and in the past, I would have dumped that player.  My decision making this year was informed, where in the past, I just based on year to date stats, with no knowledge of projections, 3 year averages, etc.  I can't believe the players that ended up on my roster, and that I did as well as I did, especially considering that at one time in my season, both my starting SS, both my starting C , my best 2B,  and my starting RF were all injured at around the same time.  I also owned SP Harden.  Without the injuries I had to endure this year, I'm positive my team would have been fighting for first place. (Bob Carter)

I enjoy your service as much as playing the fantasy game itself! (Kent Yalkut)

I enjoy your site, you guys do good work.  Thank you. (Cory Peters)

I finished first in my fantasy point league.  I did not reach the lead until during the final game of the season.  I had done a rather poor job drafting pitchers (and had 1 protected - Schilling) but your points let me pick up Myers early, Felix Hernandez right before he came up and Liriano  and had all three of them pitch the last weekend.  Their cumulative performance allowed me to win my league by 13points  (3.750 for the season) (John Scheer)

I finished first out of ten this year for my second championship in three years.  The person that I beat (on a tiebreaker) is or at least was a Fantistics subscriber.  We use a more extensive rotisserie stat set ( R, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, K, AVG, OBP, IP, W, L, K, SV, Hld, ERA, WHIP ) than the normal 5x5, so I really liked having all of that information in the preseason software.  I got good deals on Michael Young, Aramis Ramirez, Rich Harden, and Chad Cordero ( 16th round! ) at the draft, and I was able to pick up Bob Wickman, John Patterson, and Mark Ellis during the year to pull it out.  Thanks for all of the entertainment and info over the year! (Greg Bush)

I had an unbelievable season in the 5 leagues I participate.  Two first place finishes and three third place finishes.  I was able to win considerable money in three leagues and if not for significant injuries to key players to one other league I feel I would have wound up in first.  I was in first for almost five months out of the season until the injury bug struck. Thanks for all your help and I look forward to another successful season in 2006.   Bill (Bill Doll)

I had never done really well before signing up with you guys. I usually finished mid-pack. Since being onboard with you I have a first, 2 seconds and a third. (Ken Patterson)

I have been a subscriber for the past 4 years.  Your projections software, daily emails and top notch research and reports give me the confidence and knowledge to compete in CDM's Diamond Challenge.  I've finished 2nd in my league twice in the past 4 years and am developing the patience, discipline and strategies to finish higher in the future. (Roger Beckley)

I have been out of fantasy baseball for several years and this site filled the void. Unfortunately, I discovered it after our draft.  Nonetheless, the information was invaluable throughout the season as I changed my roster to take advantage of player trends.  I was pleased enough that I also decided to subscribe to your companion football site. (Wayne Robbins)

I have been playing fantasy baseball since 1984 and insider baseball is the best source that I have ever found for up to date, daily information about players.  I especially love the prospect central portion since our league carriers a minor league system of 13 players.  Keep up the good work! (Robert Taylor)

I have been with fanatics for three years now, and the first thing I do every morning is read the daily updates.  They are always informative, fresh and fun to read. (Misha Tseytlin)

I have finished in the money every year I have used your information. (Greg Schmalfeldt)

I have used the tools you provide for research and also to form a basis for my drafting philosophy.  I no longer pay $50 for A-rod, but track value players at lower prices and make sure that $1 players at the end have speed. (Dan Martin)

I have used your sight for a number or years and use it almost daily to set my line-up.  I find your information to be relative and useful.  It means I do not have to work as hard finding the information necessary to set my line-up.  Thanks for a good job. (Lorne Weber)

I joined a 22 year old league of seasoned veterans because the competition in the other leagues I had been playing in was too easy (Thanks largely too fantistics and the crew).  I felt that it was time to pick up the pace and join a league that could prove more financially beneficial than the ones I had previously been in.  In this keeper league new comers are behind the 8-ball from day one.  I had to draft last in every round, and had no keepers.  Since they use a "K" Factor (K= # of years the player has been kept, max K12) there were some pretty solid players for the taking early in the draft.  With all that said the whole premise of the new comer rules are to get them in and not have them finish in the money, but try them out and make sure they will be an asset to the league.    Now for the results, we were in 1st place the 1st month or so of the season.  Then we dropped to flip-flop between 3rd-5th for the last months.  We have a strong-hold on 3rd right now and we have a real shot at 2nd.  There is no way I would have done this without Fantistics.  And the absolute beauty of it all is now we can keep a host of studs because they are all only K1's.  We will dominate next year and years to follow.  Thanks .... (James Conwell)

I just recently joined Fantistics last month and I love it.  I am considering dropping my Roto Labs draft software and Baseball HQ. (Roy Schonberg)

I know your site prepared me with better & nearly as important different projections going into the auction. While most owners were overbidding i was able to grab some real values. Since we are a keeper league, that should pay dividends in coming seasons. (Gary Yeend)

I love the site (despite projecting Beltran for a huge year...LOL). Most years you guys a pretty accurate, so its a good bet to follow what Fantistics has to say as a guideline. I will be back in 2006 for sure........but will not have Aaron Rowand no matter what you guys say. (Paul Palumbo)

I love this site, it's the best.  I just hope none of my competitors find it!!! (Jason Frank)

I love this site.  I would recommend it to anyone, except the other people in my league. (Peter MacDonald)

I particularly found the VAM concept the best tool in the market. I am an EXPANSION team in a 9 team AL 5x5 League and using the VAM concept and a cheatsheet using our league parameters made it a breeze on draft day! There was NO way I was intimated to bid when a particular player came up for auction bid. (Michael Dugan)

I really believe utilizing VAM to select your players gives you an advantage, especially when you are able to customize the point systems.  both years i have used this i have won, although i have won most leagues i have played in (not including football.  for some reason i just suck terribly where football is concerned).  i think the content on this site is probably akin to what money ball is to the A's.  you do as best you can w/ what you have, maximizing the outcome of what is possible.  we all run into slumps and injury, but at least w/ this system, you have a better chance of staying current w/ the up and rising talent available using key statistics to foresee trend.  there is also a human element that adds to not only the enjoyment of the content, but the accuracy as well, i think.  we have all seen players we felt had something more than what just their stats spoke to, and in most instances, it proves to carry some weight.  the people on this site love the game, so they can humanize the system they use. (Chris Kelley)

I really enjoy Fantistics (both Baseball and Football) (Mike Cameron)

I started our fantasy league in 1982 and had good success for the first 18 years.  Since subscribing to Fantistics in 2000 I have won my primary league five years in a row and even more important have stocked my lifetime pool roster with the likes of Felix Hernandez, Albert Pujols, Miquel Cabrera, Grady Sizemore and Mark Prior due to your great in depth analysis of the top prospects.  Keep up the good work.  David Hall (David Hall)

I still think you guys do a great job. Dave (David Charbonneau)

I think that your service was probably the primary reason I won my league this year.  I used your draft software as well as a couple of mag's and your service really helped with mid-season acquisitions.  Thanks for the Help !!! (Mike McDonald)

I think this site is absolutely fantastic! As a baseball fanatic and an aspiring fantasy baseball guru this site provides enough upper level statistical analysis to supply the savvy while explaining things thoroughly enough to help the less experienced players. The draft software in itself was worth the purchase! (Although i'm still not sure what you guys see in Miguel Olivo!) Please let me know how I could submit a resume or writing samples to become part of the team, I couldn't think of a better thing to do for a living or for a hobby! (Drew Dinkmeyer)

I used to take the time to make my own version of the same drafting program that Fantistics provides and it never was quite as finished looking or as concise as what you provide.  Based on the drafting software alone I will never go through the headache and drain on my time again as long as Fantistics is there.  The daily updates were great and again saved me the time that I did not have to research it myself.  My only gripe is that fantasy baseball is only my hobby and the guys at Fantistics get to do it for a living. (Brian Roecker)

I usually had success before subscribing to Fantistics, but since I started subscribing to Fantistics my level of success has skyrocketed. (Don Lux)

I very happy overall with your service. It's fairly priced and very detailed....14 day rotations very helpful for national baseball contests when deciding lineup each week. (Hal Goldstein)

I wake up every morning and check your e-mail before I do ANYTHING else. I always have a leg up on the competition and they think I'm a God damn genius. (Lawrence Silverman)

I was always in the top 25% of my league, but this web site has shown me a few new things that has helped me greatly, & I believe I would have won my league if not for O. Dotel going down for the season. (Michael Warner)

I was riding high in my primary league. I was in 1st place from mid-April to the end of August. Then I lost Aramis Ramirez 3B, Sean Casey 1B, Brian Roberts 2B, and A.J. Burnett went 0-for September and was thrown off the team! Would you call that bad luck or no luck at all??!! (Bill Cherico)

I won our National league by 11 1/2 points in a rotisserie style scoring system and finished 3rd in our American League by 2 points. I think I would have won that too if I wouldn't have lost Roy Halladay to a broken leg. (Steve Stipp)

I won the championship in our league. The insights on emerging players was key. Tips on Gomes, Baker, Chen and Young were insturmental in winning. (Rob Shumay)

I'd like to take some credit for managing the team all year, but with all this great information at your fingertips, it's almost unfair!!!!! (Adam Flett)

I'll be back. (Norman Wendth)

I'm a very happy customer! I never choose a player mid-season without consulting with your service.  You make a difference in the standings!!! (Israel Popack)

I'm in for next year.  And the year after, and the year after, and the year after . . . . . . (Mike Lacy)

I'm new to Fantistics for the 2006 season. What I've seen so far is great. i'm looking forward to next year. (Randall Malboeuf)

I've been a subscriber for years, and I've won at least 75% of my leagues with the help of fantistics.  The leagues I don't win I always end up placing high.  The draft software and strategies are outstanding, and the in season analysis is invaluable.  Other sites offer similar services, but none of them give you the indepth coverage, explanations, and overall fantasy support to help you make those tough decisions year in and year out.  Fantistics offers all of that and more.  Highly recommended for beginners or advanced fantasy players who are looking for that extra edge! (Jesse Donahoo)

I've been with Fantistics now for 4 years and you guys publish the best preseason software out there. Before Fantistics I was manually updating an excel spreadsheet. Having the software frees up my time to look at boxscores and watch additional spring training games, so I am better prepared on draft day. I'll be back next year, but unfortunately I can't recommend you to my friends. I can't have them with the same edge (Fred Bintas)

I've used you guys for 3 seasons and have won 2 of them, if I win this year.  I'm a stat hound and love to slice and dice the numbers, which your system and software allow me to do to my heart's content.  In addition, the insights from the authors and the upside/downside analysis on FPI I feel is one of the bigger keys to success.  I love your site.  And I tell everyone, who is not in my league, of course, about the value you offer.  Thanks and have a good hot stove. (Dan Kent)

If you use Fantastics only for the draft you'll be head and shoulders over your competition.  I wouldn't think of going into the season without these guys, that would be like going to a game without your bat!  Fantistics will give you the edge, after that it's up to you. (Tanker Cook)

In 2002 I came in dead last. I saw an for Fantastics and signed up in 2003. Your daily news enabled to grab Miquel Cabrera and everyone in my league said "Who?" Well, my team was in the race until September when it seemed some players took a vacation. I finished 6th, an improvement but most importantly I was in it until the end. I signed on again in 2004, keeping Cabrera and built a team with Konerko @ $10, Jason Bay @ $1 (no one heard of him either), and Joe Mauer @ $1. I was in 4th place but got crushed when the annual dumping of players for keepers happened. Once again I finished 6th. I signed on for Fantastics again in 2005 keeping Konerko, Mauer, and Bay. Your analysis enabled me to grab Danny Haren for $1 and Andruw Jones for $20, along with Willy Taveras for free. I traded Jones and Haren for Sheffield, A-Rod, and Lackey and finally finished in the money. Tied for second out of 13 teams. I could have come in first, however, everywhere in the world said to bench Reggie Sanders for the last week because the Cards had nothing to play for. He had a monster week!! My point is this: before your service, I finished last. Three years using your service, my baseball season wasn't over in August. I've been in it until the end with my third year culminating in a near championship. Thanks Guys and keep up the good work. (Robert Romano)

In 2004 I found your pre-season predictions, VAM and $$ values assigned to players to be helpful ,in obtaining value (in the auction) and accurate.  This year I won.... (jon tatelman)

In my leagues, I do well because I have easy access to up-to-date player info (thanks to you guys), an extensive personal knowledge of baseball and statistics from the last 6-7 years of playing fantasy baseball, and a good sense for what I need to do to keep my teams competitive.  In the end though, you also need luck. This past season I traded for ben Sheets and Roger Clemens at the mid-way point in order to bolster my pitching, both struggled and I was left mixing and matching for the last month based on matchups. Some worked out, some didn't.   In the end, I missed by only 1 point. A lot factored into that one point, but I don't think it was a lack of information or preparation or savvy that caused me to lose.  Thanks for that! (Bryan Powers)

In my third season with Fantistics, I'm starting to wonder if I don't take your service for granted. I'm so ingrained with your style/product that there are times I look at this game from a "Fantistics" point of view as almost second nature. What tells me that my high finishes are aided by this service is that each year the thought goes through my head that "maybe I'm experienced enough and don't really need to subscribe next season," yet with each new year the thought of being without you guys becomes more and more terrifying! You have made yourselves both a comfortable fit and an indispensable resource. And I say 'yourselves' versus 'your product' because the former really shines through as the real deal in my humble opinion.  Jim M. (James Marsh)

In the three years that I have subscribed to Fantistics Baseball, I have always finished in the top 3.  With their daily emails, I am usually the first team to pick up key free agents....  Thank you! (William Smith)

It's never over til it's over.  question 48 / other = flawed draft set - up on the one Yahoo league I didn't win.  LOVE your service. Yes, I'll be back.  Thanks for a great year. (Donald Lindsay)

Its the first thing I read when I turn on the computer each night. Would never set a new weeks lineup without checking probable pitchers and stadium scheduling. (Ron Clark)

Keep up the good work.... (Mike McMorrow)

Keep up the good work, you guys helped me win this year. (Jim Kaufmann)

Keep up the good work. I just plugged in all our league's point parameters and drafted accordingly. As a result, I am in the league finals. I can't say enough good things about this service. (Dan Cecchelli)

Keeps you daily informed on players in a short amount of time. Can't live without it!  Seth (Seth Gatchell)

Kudos to Fantistics, the best site on the web (Keith Jewell)

Like the service, especially the daily information and insight....(thomas burroughs)

Lou Blasi's First Pitch was great in setting up my lineups each week, two start pitchers help me maximize my pitching stats. (Dave Kerlagon)

Love Fantistics... is fantabulous.  Keep it up guyz.  dk (Dan Kopp)

"My sixth year with Fantisitics. You are absolutely the best. Please don't use my name because I don't want fellow owners to know my secret intelligence source." (M.O.)

My first year of using Fantistics I took home 2nd place.  I followed that by back to back titles.  If it were not for injuries to Scott Rolen (shoulder) and Oliver Perez (head), I would have my 3rd consecutive title in the bag.  Even with that happening, I still have a chance to take it home this last week.  This is a very competitive league with very knowledgeable guys, the league has been in existence for around 16 years now. (Matt Wilson)

My hidden gem, 3 years ago I got so much smarter and destroyed the league.  You were there!  Last year, we were too heavy on offense and you convinced us that pitching counts too.  This year we knew about guys before they broke big, because we have read you for several years.  Injuries and underperformance happens to all of us - I like the draft prep, daily updates and the prospect notes. (James Ray)

Nobody is perfect but your site comes very close.  I look forward to your daily mailings and find them extremely useful in many ways.  Please maintain your current level of excellence.  You can count on me signing up annually for both baseball and football. (John Greise)

Great site keep up the good work. (Matt Hoffman)

Once again, your service helped me.  I've finished 1st three out of four years in a competitive 14-owner league.  I just keep hoping the other owners don't subscribe!!  Keep up the good work, and I'll be waiting for next year. (George Leight)

One stop shopping.  I saved weeks of homework in preparation for my drafts.  The unique VAM proved to be edge for me. (Bud Rumley)

Overall, I find your analysis and draft projections dead on.  I look forward to being a subscriber for many years.  This is a great service and you receive a lot of valuable information for only $43-44 for a season. (Dan Nordeen)

Overall, I think your staff did a fine job of providing valuable information to fantasy baseball leaguers.... (Ron Walker)

Overall, your staff continues to amaze me with how many ways you can slice and dice the data aside from the traditional categories like Batting Average, ERA etc.  I also love the sarcasm and abuse sprinkled in with the analysis, you can't get them just anywhere you know :)  As Arnold would say....I'll be BACK ! (Mark Dooling) 

Recommended if you want to be competitive,  but don't have time to do alot of the necessary research yourself.  Fantistics does much of the work for you. (Lance Kopenhagen)

Simply Put,Great Job!Again! Thanks Randy Hartwell (Randy Hartwell)

Since I began using Fantistics, I have placed, in order, 3rd, 1st, Last (planned trade out for freezes for this year), and 1st this year. I work for a living, and use Fantistics to keep me informed of info that I just do not have time to go find. Apparently, it works pretty well - results are everything.  Fantistics - under $50 Bragging and trash talking rights to my friends - priceless.  Team Dilligaff, Al's Baseball League, San Jose, Ca (Jerry Hoobler)

Since I've been using your service, I have never finished lower than third place out of 12 to 16 teams. Thanks! (George Darany)

Since using fantistics projections my draft strategy has become much different and for the last 4 years - much better!  In addition, the information that I get from the site has helped me become one of the better traders in the league and everyone wonders how I keep making such great free agent pick-ups. (Eric Frans)

Terrific product, I will be back for years to come! (Tony Pisicoli)

Thank you insider baseball, i doubted your service when i signed up, but i have to say... that even though, there is an amazing amount of info available to us all for free on the internet. Your service has thoroughly impressed me. Your gathering of information, and insight are unmatched by your free competitors. you get what you pay for it seems. thank you for the knowledge, and diligence. (Matthew Stone)

Thanks for a great season. I benefit most from the daily updates that allow me to see what other owners might not - such as who's hot and who might be joining a lineup or rotation soon. Once again, a great service. Thanks, guys. (Peter St. Onge)

Thanks for another great year. (Robert Goodman)

The daily emails are invaluable...Thanks for a great year again. Unfortunately, I can't help you guys grow b/c I refuse to divulge this site to anyone I'm in direct competition with but you guys do a great job !!!!!! (Rich Drucis)

The daily news and analysis combined with Prospect reports are invaluable. (Joey Terrell)

The daily updates and 2 start pitcher information put me ahead of the rest of my league when it came to claiming free agents who's value changed.  I was always first to know about guys getting call up's, entering the starting rotation, loosing playing time, etc.  Everyone thinks that I spent hours and hours on the computer looking up stats when all I really do is read your updates and occasionally check the website to get more detailed information.  Having an Ace in the hole is awesome! (Patrick Abbott)

The draft day section/VAM portion I feel really helped me in this league. I stuck to your method and came up with a nice team. I am a poor trader but also took your advice for trading and came up with some good ones. Thanks for your help and I will see you next year (Theo Caramihai)

The heads up on the 'call ups' are great. More than any and I'd have never got in on folks like Ryan Howard, Rickie Weeks and Johnny Gomes that were instrumental that final week. Overall EXCELLENT. And you did prove out on Ervin Santana and Brandon McCarthy, I just couldn't handle the learning curve. Believe me the whole leauge WATCHES who I get. And grabs my guys starting the next year for sure, so I NEED YOU! (LEO PROCHELO)

The more that I learn what you have on your website, the better I get. Nobody prepares me better for the draft and each week of the season than you do. I am in a very competitive league and you took me to their level and I cannot wait until next year! What I have available at my fingertips blows my fellow league members away!! Thank you so much!!! (Joseph McCluskey)

The overall service and projections seem to get better every year.  After the auction I forecasted our league's order of finish based on your pre-season projections.  It was scarily accurate.  I don't want to hype you guys too much though because I don't want the other guys in my league to start using you too!

The site is great.  If you aren't using it, you're ignoring the fundamentals needed to win at fantasy baseball. (Anthony Catalano)

There is no better source of information available to win your league, no matter what format you chose to play in.  Tom Lambert, President of EARL (Eastern Antillies Rotesserie League) (Thomas Lambert)

There's no better service out there today!  Sounds like marketing hype, but it's true. (David Floren)

This is my 3rd year and i have finished 3rd, 2nd and champ. The year i finished 3rd i should of won, but couldn't pull the trigger on some trades. thank you. (Kenny Vieth)

This is only my 3rd year of Roto baseball and I will finish in the money in 2 out of 3 very competitive leagues, thanks, in part, to Fantistics' baseball package.  You guys helped me go from pretender to contender.  Thanks. (Dino Farrell)

This service is great. Very helpful in decision making. Very helpful in forecasting auction values...Very helpful with tips on up and comers, and free agents to be.   I owe a good part of my successes over the last 4 years to this service. Three titles in four years (last year i had injury issues) is well worth the fee paid.  I have been playing in this same private ultra-competitive league, which I have now run for three years for a total of 19 years. With 4 titles to my credit I now am in the upper echelon of owners, again thanks in no small part to the crack work you guys do. I am shocked that others don't splurge for info services. I will not push them though...he heh heh.  My only question is ....how do I get a job with you guys?  thanks a mill.  JG, Charlotte Cyclones 1994, 2002, 2003, 2005 League Champions (Jay Gretsuk)

THIS STUFF IS THE BEST!  YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!  WENT FROM 3RD TO 1ST IN 3 YEARS.  THIS IS MY 2OTH YEAR PLAYING FANTASY BASEBALL AND I STILL LOVE IT AS MUCH AS MY FIRST YEAR.  MY WIFE STILL ONCE TO KILL ME, BUT SHE KNOWS I LOVE IT.  THANKS AGAIN FOR THE INFO,  JOHN CORPORA (John Corpora)

Using Fantistics software for the last few years has helped me transform my money league from a doormat to a champion.  I've been able to acquire lots of young talent for some of my older veterans.  By using the prospect rankings, my farm system is among the strongest in the league. The draft-day software is invaluable in preparing my notes for the auction.  Being able to freeze players kept in the league also helps forecast areas of shortage and who to target to help my team.  The daily notes, along with comments, provide a daily picture of what's going on with my team.  Just a great package of information that has paid for itself many times over.  Keep up the great work! (Adam Gross)

Was this the wackiest injury and poor performance year in many? (brad murrill)

Will be back next year (Jim Armentrout Jr)

Without a doubt, best sight on the internet (Mark Esielionis)

Year after year i finish in the money (Top 4) in my league and I owe it to Fantistics. You guys rock and are the best fantasy tool on the net. (Derek Thompson)

You all are one of my 2 primary sources for pre season ranking and in season managing. I have won this league 3 of the past  5 years in no small part to the information and insights I get from you. (Tony Gartner)

You all are reason I got Miguel Cabrara off the waiver wire when he first came up.    What else do I need to say! (Russell Andorka)

You guys are the BEST - I've been in 9 leagues the past three years and have never finished lower than 2nd place (four 1sts, five 2nds)!  The product you provide is extremely informative and professional, and I would have no hesitation in using your service again.  Thanks very much for all your help! (Keith Sauter)

You have a great product that can really add to anyone's knowledge of fantasy baseball. (Jon Groen)

You provide a great service.  This was my first FB season.  I did not know ANY of the stud fantsay players from last year.  I had the #1 pick, so I took Pujols.  After that, your draft software selected my team for me.  I did not know one player from another.  There were a couple of busts (d'angelo and Miguel Olivo), but Matsui, Young, Bay, and Pujols all ended up in the top 14 point scorers of all batters.  And they were all on my team.  That left just 10 spots in the top 14 for the other 11 teams to fight over!  Statistically, I was stacked!  I won my first FB season because I used your drafting software and followed your daily emails.  Statistics do not lie.  There is no emotional decision that needs to be made. (Jim Huddy)

You’re software is incredible.  I won a very competitive 22 team 5 x 5 league this year.  Our league has had over 600 transactions during the season.  We have to start players in our league that some smaller leagues probably don’t consider, but your software covers everyone.  I say I won, even with a week left, but it’s statistically impossible for me not to win because I’m so far ahead.  Great work!  I have some opinions on how to use your software in large draft leagues if you are interested.  Thanks again. (Sean Murphy)

Your advice and updates are insightful. I started the year with a pitching staff that included Sheets, Schmidt, and Foulke. I obviously had to be on top of it, and was with your advice. (Pete Likens)

Your data and insights are invaluable to any team that is making a run for first place in any type of format. (Thomas Lambert)

YOUR PRODUCT IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST FANTASY PRODUCT FOR PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND THE WORDS "MEAN" AND "VARIANCE" (Mike Lehner)

Your service is a godsend to those of whose value stats above gut feelings and typical baseball intuition that many other people use. If you value statistics more than flowery words and common guess work then this is the service for you. (Patrick Bonham)

Your site gives a fantasy baseball owner any information they would ever want. Just need to get this wonderful information to your subscribers sooner. I'm in a very competitive league and need information on call ups the day they are activated! (William Turner)
