Minor League Fantasy Baseball Game Launches for the 2010 Season

Box Baseball Minors Gives Fantasy Managers a Chance to Compete With Minor League Baseball Players for Free

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - January 5, 2010) - Box Baseball, the ultimate simulation fantasy baseball game, today announced the launch of a new Box Baseball Minors fantasy game. Box Baseball Minors is the first daily simulation fantasy baseball game using real-life minor league player statistics. Box Baseball Minors will be offered free for 2010 with the purchase of any team from the regular Box Baseball fantasy game.

Traditional online fantasy baseball games allow managers to draft minor league players who generally sit on their benches, unable to contribute unless called up to the Majors. With Box Baseball Minors, managers can draft any minor league player from Class A to Triple A and field a team and compete in a league dedicated to tomorrow's stars. Results are based on how those minor league players do in real life. Box Baseball Minors plays approximately an 80 game schedule in step with real life.

Box Baseball is an online fantasy baseball game unlike anything on the market today. Box Baseball offers:

--  daily results based on previous games' stats (predictive)
--  the most realistic fantasy baseball simulation engine algorithm
--  incorporation of many baseball stats including ballpark effects and zone
    performances for outs and hits
    

Three affordable options are available for the 2010 season of Box Baseball. Users can play the 2010 season for only $8.97 per month for eight months, or save 40% and pay only $59 upfront (reduced from the regular price of $97). Entire fantasy leagues that come on board will only need to pay $25 per team. All Box managers will receive their Box Minors team free of charge.
