You Aren't a FanGraphs 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.

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.

Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
Please do not let Kiley McDaniel do the introduction ever again.
Hey Kiley, I like your scouting. And it’s not like you’re never funny, but…
Carson is the funny guy, you know?
So the Phillies still aren’t up, does this mean Kiley is a failure?
I like your grit, Ryan. Care to be a major leaguer? If so, please call me on your personal rotary phone. My phone number is 16.

At least warn us there will be 5 minutes of poutine jokes so we can skip that part.
Leave the charisma/likeability to Carson, Kiley.
You guys are brutal. The conversation about reasons guys get rushed to the majors was enlightening and new information. You’re on the internet, you know how rare that is.
One of the best Fangraph’s Audios ever.
Pretty big fan of Kiley myself. I’m pretty worried for Canada, and poutine fans everywhere.
Am I the only who like all the stupid intros. They’re not haha funny but enough to give me a grin.
I never miss a single Kiley podcast if only because I’ve never heard stuff like this before. Being a fan for over 20 years, it’s not often you come across just new stuff every week. It’s just really interesting to me.
