Fangraphs Launches

Welcome to fangraphs.com. We are very excited to finally launch. We have been working on this site for many months and we hope that it becomes a useful tool for baseball player analysis.

We have a lot in store for the future and plan to frequently add new features and content to the site, the first of which will be player comparisons. This will allow you to compare one stat for up to three different players on a single graph.

Please have a look around and if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to post in the forums or contact us through the use of the contact us link below.

We would also like to say thank you to Transverse Styles for the forum design, LogoWorks for the logo design, and lastly Baseball Info Solutions for being our stats provider.
