FanGraphs Boston Meetup Tonight!
Well, it’s here. Or, it will be soon. Not soon as in less than 48 seconds from now, but in just a few slim hours, it will be time for the FanGraphs Boston Meetup. We hope you can join us. Here, once again, is the info, in both link and block quote form:
Sometimes, we nerds like to go out on the town. One of those times is the weekend of the Saber Seminar, which is one of the best events (if not the best) on the yearly sabermetric and/or sabermatic calendar. This year’s Saber Seminar is August 16-17. So, just as we did last year, we’re once again going to set up shop at The Mead Hall in Cambridge the night before Saber Seminar, on Friday, August 15th!
So come join Dave Cameron, David Appelman, Carson Cistulli, David Laurila, Matt Swartz and myself tonight at any time from 7 pm to midnight. George Springer won’t be playing, but there should still be plenty to talk about!
Paul Swydan used to be the managing editor of The Hardball Times, a writer and editor for FanGraphs and a writer for Boston.com and The Boston Globe. Now, he owns The Silver Unicorn Bookstore, an independent bookstore in Acton, Mass. Follow him on Twitter @Swydan. Follow the store @SilUnicornActon.
can’t be there for health reasons. it is taped, and can I purchase it?
thx,
Martin
No more fighting with Laurila over Iglesias. Iglesias not worth it. Have fun.
Iglesias is amaze. Suarez is going to need to learn to play 3B next year.. move clumsy Castellanos back to LF. JD slides over to RF to replace Hunter.
This is much more enticing than the Moston Beetup last year, which culminated in a beet-eating contest where the winner would be the entrant who could eat the most beets in 15 minutes.
The winner choked down two bites of a single beet, which was more than anyone else managed.
The organizers cancelled Moston Beetup Part the Second, at last realizing what the rest of the universe already knew: beets is nasty.
