Last book I read: Fantasyland, by Sam Walker, a WSJ sports writer who entered one of the country’s most competitive Rotisserie baseball leagues and tells the story on these pages. An excellent book–partly an analysis of the culture clash between the number-crunchers and the crusty old-time scouts, partly the story of how fantasy baseball became a phenomenon and the strategies that go into it, but mostly an old-fashioned good read, well worth the price and time for anyone who loves baseball and has ever played Rotisserie. It’s smart, funny, and colorful.
