(for ftp) etext.archive.umich.edu (directory pub/Sports/Baseball)

I haven't checked out the Web site, but I believe it's separate from the
U of Michigan site. There is also a new Usenet group rec.sports.baseball.data,
which presumably is intended for posting, or pointers to, data sources. I
have not found an Internet site that maintains baseball salary data, as Dr.
Snell originally asked for, but some well placed questions might yield a
source or two :-)
Some time ago, there was a baseball archive at wuarchive.wustl.edu, but I
was unable to confirm this recently because it seems to be overloaded quite
often :-). Perhaps others can (dis)confirm this. The FAQ list of
rec.sport.baseball might also provide additional sources unmentioned here,
if one exists (?).
