I found it hard enough to read last year's book - especially the stats in that lighter typeface - but this year it will have to be reviewed in small doses under ideal conditions...

John, love the info, but you've got to get a PDF version available out there on time, so us visually impaired readers can have a chance to enjoy it.

I found your book in my mailbox when I checked it at 2:30.  I was pleasantly suprised, considering how slow the mail service is here in Southwest Florida.  

This is the first book of yours I've ordered and it looks great.  Keep up the excellent work!

Thanks, John & Jeri.

*they always announce this at Verizon (nee MCI) Center before Wizards and Capitols games and I get a kick out of it--of course, it's true

hmmm....do I read the book tonight or grade my 6th grade students math HW?  Do you think they will understand tomorrow why I am so tired and did not get anything done for class :)

T H A N K S  !!

Billings, MT

looks much better than last year's at first glance!  thanks for the spine lettering!

Envelope was nearly destroyed for me too. It's amazing that the books still in good shape, I barely even had to push the envelope to make it fall apart and release the book.

I love the paper you used this year.

The thicker, glossier pages are a major improvement. Much more professional look and feel. Good choice on the printing company.

However, after just one day of flipping through it a big chunk of pages (most of the index) is coming apart at the spine.  It looks like maybe the glue did not extend all the way to the back of the book.  I suspect in a short amount of time that section of the book is going to completely come lose.

I'm pleased to say that the first player I looked up is the winner of the Josh Willingham award.  

Already using it!

The books looks great.  Thanks John and Jeri.  

One suggestion for future editions: Could you come up with a symbol (or something easily identifiable) to flag players who have made their MLB debut?  I know a lot of us are in APBA/SOM leagues and it would really help when flipping through to quickly see who's made the show.  I know you can look at the stats and see their highest level but having a "star" or something next to the name would be MUCH easier.  Not a complaint, just a suggestion for the future!

One suggestion for next year - could you list the page # that the player is found in the book on the team lists in the back of the book. It would make it easier for people to find the player in the book (even though they are in alpha order in the book)

Countless hours of research and edit time here John and Jeri. Thanks.

Thanks - nice job.

Need the book to get through the cold and dark winter here in Norway:) Gonna be christmas all over again.

Packaging was beat to heck, but the book itself was fine, so no worries.
