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.

Carson on malice: ‘I don’t like that.”
Just wanted to say thanks about all the content provided guys! For the life of me I can’t understand all the vitriol you receive for providing tons of insight on offseason moves. The Red Sox have been extremely active this offseason, completely overhauling their roster. Of course people should expect a corresponding amount of content to match their activity. Modern day cynicism and “key board warriors” sometimes leave me depressed about the human race and the way it appears to be trending…. Pulling out my fiddle
More Liberty guest appearances please — the little bit of dog sounds in the last ~5 seconds of the podcast was a pretty exciting teaser.
The sounds of the dog park are surprisingly muted, so much so the Dave’s occasional heavy breathing makes it sound like something else is going on.
Dave was more animated than I’ve ever heard him be on this podcast. It made for an entertaining listen.
