Free (Baseball) Data

I stumbled across my old data from my first publication, and have posted it online. It contains the signing salaries of MLB Free Agents between 1991 and 2002. It has player stats, signing team characteristics, signing team's city characteristics, and simulated tax burden with an accompanying instrument.

Of course I will be happy if someone extends the work, but it might also be a convenient dataset for students interested in baseball who are also looking to run a regression and write up the results for their econometrics class.

Enjoy!
