Yahoo! Fantasy Sports: A Data Goldmine

The Yahoo! Fantasy Sports suite offers various versions of fantasy football and baseball games, from free versions to the more advanced Plus versions. The games comprise leagues with up to 12 teams per league, each managed by one or more users. At the beginning of the season, athletes or players are assigned to the teams via a draft. Those left unassigned are available to be acquired via a free-agent or waiver wire transaction. The teams then compete based on statistics from real-world competitions, such as touchdowns, yards gained, batting average, and ERA. Rules can be customized for each league, and game-style and scoring modifiers can be configured. Check out the API example code below for an understanding of accessing player information.

$.getJSON("http://fantasysports.yahooapis.com/fantasy/v2/league/223.l.431/players;count=1?format=json", function(data) { console.log(data); });
