Hilarious but not that surprising on the last bit. FG commenters are pretty brutal
The dude, Rian Watt, literally wrote an entire article for FG full of drivel like, "Wouldn’t you rather watch Aaron Judge hit the everloving **** out of that glittering ball than watch his balding boss, back in the luxury suite, push some paper around?".
Meg Rowley came on board January 5, and has written 3 articles: "What If Baseball Had a Penalty Box?", "Let’s Endure Four-and-a-Half Minutes of Mound Visits Together", and "How the Union Could Win Over the Public". That is garbage straight out of someone's Facebook feed.
Then Kiley comes back after a failed venture in MLB, and his only non-prospect article was a nonsensical "scouts vs stats" debate, like it was still 2005 when that discussion was all the rage.
The newest hire, Jay Jaffe, the guy who invented the analysis for objective HoF worthiness, just posted his first article and wrote, "The search for smarter baseball is a worthwhile one, but smarter baseball shouldn’t mean less entertaining baseball."
Are you ****ing kidding me? They have purposely dumbed down the content at FG in some attempt at broadening their audience and making more money. The type of content that made FG great is largely going away, and it's a shame. It's just another site for dumb anecdotal articles now, unfortunately.
