Every year, fantasy baseball grows in size, exposing more of the population to the sad, masochistic, stat-filled addiction that the strange few of us already know like the back of our hands. Usually, the first decision new managers have to face is which format they want to play under: rotisserie (roto) or head-to-head. My recommendation to new owners: join one of each and decide for yourselves which format you like best, because even though both are amazingly addicting, they’re remarkably different. I like head-to-head formats better than rotisserie because I like the week-to-week thrill. I like the rivalry aspect of it.
Before we delve into the differences, let’s make sure we don’t leave any stone unturned and quickly discuss the history of the “sport.”
