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 https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/28197-cover-of-fantasyland/ 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.

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.

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 https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/28197-cover-of-fantasyland/#findComment-388539 Share on other sites More sharing options...
