Congratulations!
Look forward to reading your stuff on there. Oh, and hey, be very careful if Fangraphs hires any interns that look like this:

"I was doing this when BJ was in his father's nutsack." -Renzo Gracie
I think devil_fingers
has the good sense to stay the hell away from Steve Phillips. :)

That doesn't mean that Phillips wouldn't give it a shot
I mean, look at that chick. Although I’ve never seen him, I wouldn’t be surprised if devil_fingers was better looking.

I'd go for Kruk first
he seems like a cuddler

I guess we prepare ourselves for some more lengthy fangraphs posts...
their posts are oftentimes 2 or 3 of paragraphs, while d_fs ofter require 2 or 3 smoke breaks.
congrats D_F
Fire Everyone
I think like just about every other website nowadays...
…they have one or more blogs as part of the website.

Congrats devil_fingers!!
Nice to see some payoff for you and all the hard work you put into your posts. Keep it coming!
Good Luck not getting banned @ the K next year
I, personally will lose all respect for you if you are still able to walk through the turnstiles freely by say, June 1st.
BOOM! ROASTED!

The more things change...
It does pay to be an overbearing, obnoxious, know-it-all; deeply insecure, who has to constantly convince themselves and others how smart they are. Congratulations, you should do well.
was that Ms. df?

if that string of adjectives is directed at d_f
I can assure you that you are alone in those sentiments
Two comments at RR in 6 months and one of them was that.
Sounds like someone is bitter.

d_f, congrats my man!
I know you say it’ll be easy to identify your articles but I’m still scared I’ll stupidly not know… but anyways, best of luck and I’m very proud of you.

Finally, the Royals will get a fair shake from Fangraphs and their reasoned analysis!
This is the best news since Fangraphs added wOBA. Congrats on the new gig. And be sure to email Jin Wong all of your articles.
