TwentySeven Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I have a quick question: Can anyone tell me which player is in the cover image of the book, Fantasyland - http://www.fantasylandthebook.com/book.htm I couldn't decide whether this was Left Field or Baseball 101. Much appreciated, TS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJEagles Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I am guessing it isn't a major league player. probably just a model they used for the cover of the book. I am probably wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abc006 Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Actually, I just finished reading that book, like two days ago. It wasn't bad. And as far as I could tell, I don't think it's a major league player, like DJ said, probably just a model. If they were actually going to put a major league player on it, I think they'd put a well-known one, and I can't recognize him. I don't think the statistics on the front of the book are from a real player either. In fact, on the book there's this strange little equation that doesn't seem to be a real thing. If I remember, things where along the lines of "(SS + BB) / HR". Umm, yeah, you can't add up a position in an equation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably just used random stats from a box score, no real significance. OK, I guess it could be a model. Looks kind of like Nick Markakis though.

eber Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 He looks like a random kid/model. And he's wearing a Padres uniform (with the patch on the wrong sleeve) in this image: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
