FanGraphs Scottsdale Meetup: Tonight!

by
March 8, 2019

FanGraphs is headed to Arizona for spring training, and we want to share a few drinks and some baseball talk with our readers. So come join us today, Friday, March 8 from 7 to 10 pm at the Two Brothers Scottsdale Tap House & Brewery. We’ve reserved the upstairs loft, and will have appetizers for everyone. It’s a great chance to meet other baseball fans and chat with a bunch of your favorite FanGraphs writers.

If you plan on joining us, we would appreciate you RSVPing using this handy Google form, so we know how much food to order.

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.

Since I’ll be attending the SABR Analytics conference starting the same day in downtown Phoenix, it would be nice to meet any Fangraphs folk doing the same thing before they head on out to Scottsdale. Mention that if you would and I think we could arrange something. Also, the day before on the 7th, I’ll be going to either the Dodgers at Angels or Cleveland at Arizona and I’d be happy to give you a ride (leaving in the morning to watch the workouts). You can contact me at jsatterlyATyouknowwho.com. Dave was there last year and Eno is scheduled to give a talk.

That is cool of you, all of you FanGraphs people rule (and ex-FG..wink toward Eno)!

I am at the SABR Analytics conference and will do my best to make it out to the Meetup for at least a little while.

Of course the one time it actually works out that I will be in the same place at the same time for the exact same reason (i.e. Spring Training), the ONE game I’m going to is at the same time as this event. Woof.

I’m looking forward to again attending, but it’s been 3 years since the last time. I know Cousin Eno will be around so I’ll make sure he gets there too. Most of the people on the list above I haven’t met yet!

Likewise, I’m excited for it. Other years I arrived too late to go to the FanGraphs meetup.
