Baseball Prospectus

For those who dont know, or dont read the site, Baseball Prospectus is now charing $40 a year to read most of their content.

Is anyone planning on signing up? I love BP but I am unsure of whether I actually want to pay for it. Rob Neyer does great work for free at ESPN and at his website, among numerous others.

Yeah, I just saw that, too- BP has great info so it's a shame. But I'm poor and refuse to pay for almost anything online (well, not including goods- I get stuff off amazon, ebay, buy.com, newegg, etc)- all that much more remarkable I got a hattrick sponsorship.

SI

I'm def thinking about it. It looks like they will have a lot more content, there seems to be a lot more writers and Sheehan is back.

I've never paid for any extra content online, but the way things are going, we might not have a choice in order to get decent content. Geez, the next thing you know, they'll be charging you to download porn on the internet!

And with one sentence Craptacular has managed to ruin my entire week.

Thanks,

Smile I already signed up

I did it because I really do enjoy their stuff, plus as a way to say "Thank you" for being the ones that, along with Rob Neyer, really introduced me to a higher level of baseball thinking.

You do get Joe Sheehan's newsletter with your subscription, and that's almost worth the cost all by itself.

Don't worry, I'm sure there will be a Nipster or Jizzaa available for you to get your fix.
