FanGraphs Audio: Dave Cameron on Rebuilding a Rebuild

by
June 1, 2017

Episode 745
What happens when a rebuild doesn’t work? That question, arrived at in stupid and circuitous fashion, leads to the bulk of this week’s conversation with managing editor Dave Cameron. Also: if it’s the practice of FanGraphs authors, generally speaking, to ask questions and attempt to answer them intelligently — if that’s the case, is it possible even to address the recent contretemps between Hunter Strickland and Bryce Harper? “Sort of,” is Dave Cameron’s answer summarized briefly.

You Aren't a FanGraphs Member
It looks like you aren't yet a FanGraphs Member (or aren't logged in). We aren't mad, just disappointed.
We get it. You want to read this article. But before we let you get back to it, we'd like to point out a few of the good reasons why you should become a Member.
1. Ad Free viewing! We won't bug you with this ad, or any other.
2. Unlimited articles! Non-Members only get to read 10 free articles a month. Members never get cut off.
3. Dark mode and Classic mode!
4. Custom player page dashboards! Choose the player cards you want, in the order you want them.
5. One-click data exports! Export our projections and leaderboards for your personal projects.
6. Remove the photos on the home page! (Honestly, this doesn't sound so great to us, but some people wanted it, and we like to give our Members what they want.)
7. Even more Steamer projections! We have handedness, percentile, and context neutral projections available for Members only.
8. Get FanGraphs Walk-Off, a customized year end review! Find out exactly how you used FanGraphs this year, and how that compares to other Members. Don't be a victim of FOMO.
9. A weekly mailbag column, exclusively for Members.
10. Help support FanGraphs and our entire staff! Our Members provide us with critical resources to improve the site and deliver new features!
We hope you'll consider a Membership today, for yourself or as a gift! And we realize this has been an awfully long sales pitch, so we've also removed all the other ads in this article. We didn't want to overdo it.

Hi Carson,
Since I pay for the ad-free membership, could you send me an ad-free version of your podcasts? I feel that my $50 means I shouldn’t have to listen to your plug for an ad-free membership at the beginning of each podcast.

FYI: in case it didn’t come across, I was kidding — I never know how these comments are received by readers.
