FanGraphs+ is Back
FanGraphs+ never went away — we update it throughout the year with content posted on ESPN Insider — but it’s time for the annual. We’ll be publishing the full FG+ arsenal in just over a week.
Once again, we’ll have over 1000 player capsules, sussing the fantasy value of everything from the studdiest stud to the LOOGYiest LOOGY. This year, we’ll add auction values to those capsules, and FG+ subscribers will see those values on the projections leaderboards. And below you’ll see our table of contents — all long, research-driven and analysis-heavy pieces that walk the line between fantasy and real baseball work.
As a special preview, available to current FanGraphs+ subscribers as well as ottoneu players, we’re publishing Chad Young’s piece, Auction Values For All Three ottoneu Formats, today as a free bonus. Hey, it’d be kind of unfair to let some ottoneu users in on the fun while excluding others, wouldn’t it? Deliciously unfair.
The staff has been working hard on this, and we hope you enjoy!

With a phone full of pictures of pitchers' fingers, strange beers, and his two toddler sons, Eno Sarris can be found at the ballpark or a brewery most days. Read him here, writing about the A's or Giants at The Athletic, or about beer at October. Follow him on Twitter @enosarris if you can handle the sandwiches and inanity.
If you click on the link for the auction values page it’s just a teaser saying he does the adjusted values. Where can someone actually find the ottoneu values for players?
Sorry, just need to confirm: it looks like you were an FG+ subscriber, and you were logged in and you did click ‘read the rest of this entry’ and then what happened?
Where’s the player capsule on the player pages? It just shows the 2012 FG+
Updated post to make it more clear: we’re publishing in a little over a week. Today is just an announcement it’s coming, and the preview.
You should be able to access it:
– if you have an active ottoneu team.
– if you have ever subscribed to any year of FanGraphs+ (2010, 2011, 2012 or 2013).
I subscribed to the 2012 FG+, but I do not have an active Ottoneu team
You should have access to this article then. There are no 2013 player capsules yet. They will be available February 4th.
