Kiley McDaniel

In addition to what wupk mentioned about his experience as a scout, have you seen the content he puts out? Dude was basically doing this job and giving it to Fangraphs readers for free.

No I don't know anything about what he writes/wrote about. I guess I will defer to everyone else who has said they like the addition. 10 idiots can't all be wrong. :icon_biggrin::icon_biggrin:

Give it a rest. Kiley's worked for the front offices for the Yankees, Pirates and the Orioles, in addition to working for Baseball Prospectus (covering Latin America) and also created an unique system for forecasting future valuation of prospects combining traditional scouting with more advanced analytics. He's not just some random website guy as you suggested.

Why bother? Seriously?

So reading isn't a strong suite of yours.

Perhaps you completely ignored where I said I don't know who this guy and I will assume the board knows what they are talking about.

The above reflects your initial quote. Then you called the rest of us "idiots" for endorsing him. Pot. Kettle. Black.

He did a little more than "work for a website"... did you bother to investigate any of his career or did you just assume he was basically just a blogger his whole life? Typical Niners... spouting his mouth off about something he knows nothing about. I hope that's not your everyday practice with life matters as well.

Clearly you missed the smile faces after I said that. Or you don't understand sarcasm or joking. But hey continue to pick and choose things I say when trying to make me look foolish.
 
Amazing how some people can turn any thread into something of themselves.

Hugely impressed with the volume of positive support this move has earned.
