Fantasy baseball has become huge on the Net over the last several years. Stat services abound. There are many sites, a few of which now successfully charge subscription fees, dedicated to providing information and analysis to the fantasy player.
Many leagues post their league happenings on the Web just to show off.
And many sport sites, such as ESPN Sportszone and Baseball Manager , offer to sell you fantasy baseball of their own design. Recently, however, free fantasy baseball has popped up on the net in a big way. A firm called Small World is the leader of this trend and is poised to become a leader in the field. The company has been involved in sports gaming since before the Web took off, but only in the last year has it embraced free fantasy games. And that direction appears to be inexorably bringing the company towards profitability.
