Dynamic Baseball Player NFT Fantasy League
| New Sorare & MLB Partnership 2022
Over the last few years, sports
teams around the world have been
taking their fan engagement digital
with everything from fan tokens
and online clubs to NFTs and
trading cards.
Now MLB has announced plans for
an entire fantasy baseball league
with the help of Sorare, a company
known for its soccer fantasy
leagues, as explained in this new
report from Chiliz News.
Though many details have
yet to be announced, their
NFT playing cards are likely
to be a part of the new
fantasy league.
While most fantasy leagues
follow a "Draft" model, MLB
may go in a different direction,
by having you create teams
using the NFT trading cards.
Chiliz News explains that this
could open MLB up to more fans
worldwide, as their new partner,
Sorare, has 1.7 million registered
users throughout more than 180
countries.
This will be Sorare’s first non-soccer
partnership, though it has agreements
with soccer leagues ranging from
Major League Soccer (MLS) in the US,
LaLiga in Spain, Bundesliga in
Germany, and a wide range of
individual clubs.
MLB commissioner Robert
Manfred Jr. said, “The
connections we build with our
fans are vital and Sorare
understands the importance of
that bond."
"The company’s focus on transforming
fandom through an innovative combination
of sports, technology and gaming to let fans
truly own a piece of the game they love is
unique and goes beyond borders – allowing
us to bring the love of baseball to more fans
across the globe.”
Sorare has been recently valued at
$4.3 billion, with backing from major
sources around the world including
former Manchester United defender
Rio Ferdinand, and FIFA World Cup
winners Gerard Piqué and Antoine
Griezmann.
