Fantasy Baseball Manager of the Year
The powerful research tool for drafting and managing a winning fantasy team. From superstars to sleepers, explore a totally new system for evaluating and comparing fantasy baseball players.
Build a Winning Fantasy Baseball Team
Welcome to the 2009 edition of Fantasy Baseball Manager of the Year, or “MOTY” for short — a revolutionary player evaluation system that “scores” batters and pitchers the way the fantasy game itself is scored.
- Draft
- MOTY# projections help build the strongest Opening Day roster possible.
- Manage
- The MOTY Scope™ and player graphs tell you who’s really hot. And who’s really not.
- Win
- Capture your league championship, bust out the smack talk, Take a Yoo-hoo shower.
The key to the MOTY System is a rating number we’ve developed called the “MOTY#” — a player’s overall fantasy value. For Bill James fans, it’s similar to his “Win Shares” value. If that doesn’t ring any bells, it’s like a QB rating in football. Either way, the MOTY# is your new secret weapon come draft day. And throughout the ’09 season.
