Bill James, Online

By Tangotiger, 10:14 AM

In the new Bill James 2008 Handbook, James refers to “Bill James Online”.  If you google that you get: Batter Profiles, among a host of profiles on the left, and other navigation on top.  It’s still in Beta mode, but this is the internet, and “Beta” means “production-unready”.  You can’t hide.  The search button is not working, but Google is.  Try this:
site:billjamesonline.net “fielding bible”
A couple of clicks gets you here and an impressive list of excerpts.  (In the 2008 Hardball Times Annual, I will also have a Jeter fielding article.) You can also register on their site, but, if you can work Google, you can probably get by.  Feels just like it did 25 years ago.

I will say that it probably would have been better if Bill James bought out Sean Forman.
