FanGraphs Audio: Chris Carter Is a Cardboard Box

Episode 728
Managing editor Dave Cameron is the guest on this edition of the pod, during which he discusses the unconscionably thorough positional power rankings; explains why contract extensions for certain types of players (such as Jose Ramirez) seem not to have benefited from inflation for half a decade; and suffers through a tortured metaphor in which Chris Carter is likened to a Finnish cardboard box.
