Description:
Blacksburg Books presents "Baseball Obscura: Author Event" with David J. Fleming on Friday, March 13, 2026.

Join us for a night of talking baseball with David Fleming, author of "Baseball Obscura 2026"!

David Fleming’s "Baseball Obscura 2026" combines analytics with engaging essays and opinions: the annual book features in-depth team essays, player rankings, and reflections on subjects as far reaching as the Speedway Classic, baseball’s fraught entanglement with sports betting, and how fans might claim a seat at the table during next year’s labor negotiations. Packed with insights and humor, "Baseball Obscura" is the thinking fan's guide to baseball in 2026.

This event will be conversational, so feel free to bring questions about recent trades and signings, comments and concerns about your favorite team, or any long-burning opinions you’d like to get off your chest.

A Blacksburg resident, David Fleming has written three editions of "Baseball Obscura". Prior to publishing the annual, he was a contributing writer to sabermetrics legend Bill James’ site for fifteen years.

Blacksburg Books is located at 401 South Main Street, Suite 106 in Blacksburg, VA.
