At long last, the Baseball Prospectus 2012 annual app is now available for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.
Follow your favorite MLB teams and players throughout the season with Baseball Prospectus analysis that includes team overviews, player assessments, detailed stats, and 2012 projections for over 2000 players.
The app contains even more features such as:
- Daily 2012 stats updates for every team, every game.
- Every MLB player card has a “live” line for their actual 2012 stats (that updates whenever you open their card and have wireless access)
- Sort 2012 projections by position or stat
- Share updates with friends
The app will also continue to be updated throughout the season to include more players (and players who missed the book), new stat lines, and updated projections. Players will move to their new teams. Comments will be updated. And new new features, like a more user-friendly horizontal view for the iPad will be added.
The regular price for the app will be $9.99. However, for the next 2 weeks only, we’re able to offer our loyal followers a discounted price of $4.99. We appreciate your business and hope you enjoy the perfect companion to your copy of Baseball Prospectus 2012.
​You can download the app from the iTunes store at the following link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/ app/baseball-prospectus-2012- app/id517456344?mt=8

Since this is version 1, it took the developers a little longer to design the functionality. We certainly will aim to get this out earlier next year.
If you remember, we actually had a free Android app for free site articles, blogs, the podcast, etc. 2 years ago but Android changed their app requirements, and it was pulled.
So, we're not in any way ignoring Android.
No thank you.
Some people like to have the book and the app. Some people who didn't buy the book, want the app. We're giving you options. That's all. We're not forcing anything on anyone.
One amusing problem, though. When viewing Player Lists by team (Team -> Player List), players are listed in alphabetical order by last name, but their first names are put first, which makes the Dodgers player list look like this:
* Bobby, Abreu
* Alexi, Amarista
* Erick, Aybar
and so on. I'm getting used to the giggles, but please fix it in the next version. Thanks for the great effort!
