PrintPlease help me to welcome Erik Manning to Beyond the Box Score. You might know him from places like Future Redbirds, Viva El Birdos, and Play a Hard Nine. I'm personally a big fan of how Erik writes using sabermetrics and not necessarily about sabermetrics. He's also a big farm system guy, a topic of discussion we could use more of here at BtB. Look for a couple posts a week from Erik, at least until we can convince him it's worth posting more often in exchange for an office with a window.

You mean a basement with a window?
Welcome aboard Erik!
"OBP is not a production number, and should not be used as something he achieved."
thnx for the warm welcome everyone.
it sure is dark in this windowless basement. can someone bring me a hot pocket, or something?
I'll be the one overrating these Faberge' eggs, thank you very much!

there are quite a few of us who can use a computer
but we get a bad rap as it pertains to coherency. For example, the stltoday.com forums.

use of the word fab here, Flim
doesn’t do much to counter xanthan’s statement above, does it?
Congrats, erik! They made a terrific choice.

Congratulations, Erik!
I’d say more, but am having trouble finding the letters on this typing thingy.
