FanGraphs Boston Meetup – Saber Seminar Eve (8/21/15)

Are you going to be in town for the Saber Seminar? Of course you are, you wouldn’t miss the best baseball conference of the year, would you? Of course not. And, are you of legal drinking age and would like to meet up with other people who will be at the conference? Well, why wouldn’t you be? We can’t think of one good reason. So, for the third straight year, we’re organizing a Meetup at The Mead Hall in Cambridge on Friday, August 21, aka Saber Seminar Eve.

We’ll be getting started right at 7 pm, at Mead Hall’s upstairs bar, just in time to watch the first pitch of the Royals v. Red Sox tilt at Fenway Park. Generally, there are all sorts of writers from the FanGraphs family of blogs at the Meetup, and this year should be no different. Dave Cameron, David Laurila, Jeff Zimmerman, Chris Mitchell, Bryan Cole, Peter Bonney and myself will be on the premises for sure, as will Saber Seminar co-organizer Chuck Korb.

Saber Seminar is one of our favorite weekends of the year, and we hope that you’ll be able to come out and help us kick off the weekend in style. We can debate who is the more valuable young player on the Red Sox, Xander Bogaerts or Mookie Betts, whether the Royals really do need to re-sign Alex Gordon, and so much more.

We look forward to seeing you there!
