Cantor Data Services Launches Two Daily Fantasy Baseball Leagues On Cantor Fantasy Sports(TM)
Unique fantasy line combines fair play with competitive balance and offers the ultimate fantasy sports experience for MLB enthusiasts
NEW YORK, April 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Cantor Data Services, a subsidiary of Cantor Fitzgerald, today announced the launch of two daily fantasy baseball leagues: Cantor 6(TM) and Cantor Top Tier(TM) for MLB, now available at: http://www.cantorfantasysports.com. Both leagues offer the ultimate fantasy baseball experience and combine fair play with competitive balance. Registered users can enjoy a range of interactive features available at Cantor Fantasy Sports(TM), including public chat sessions, managed friendship lists, leaderboards and scoreboards.
"We are pleased to introduce two daily fantasy baseball leagues that offer fantasy enthusiasts the latest in flexible play and entertainment," said Matthew Holt, Vice President of Fantasy Games. He continued: "The launch of Cantor 6(TM) and Cantor Top Tier(TM) for MLB reaffirms our commitment to providing a revolutionary, social fantasy sports platform that combines fair play with competitive balance."
Playing Cantor 6(TM), a daily fantasy baseball league, participants can select a team of six players consisting of one pitcher, two outfielders and three infielders. A fantasy line will be calculated for the two opposing rosters. The fantasy scores of all users will be added up and the fantasy line applied to the underdog's roster to determine the winner.
Also a daily fantasy baseball league, Cantor Top Tier(TM) for MLB allows participants to select from tiers, rather than through a fantasy line. Tiers of baseball players are grouped by a similar fantasy value and participants select three pitchers, one reliever, three outfielders and three infielders, one player from each tier, to form their fantasy team.
When playing Cantor 6(TM) and Cantor Top Tier(TM) for MLB participants can monitor their fantasy points based performance on a side by side live scoreboard after the first game begins. Participants can draft as many rosters and enter them in as many leagues as they would like.
For more details or to register for an account, please visit the Cantor Fantasy Sports(TM) website at: http://www.cantorfantasysports.com.
Players can learn to play by entering one of many free leagues. Those competing in a pay league must be at least 18 years old and reside in one of the following states: Alabama, Alaska, California, District of Columbia, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming.
