Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Here's what they had to say about BtB:

"10. Beyond the Box Score - "Statistics Gone Mad," is an understatement, as this blog is a stat rats haven. This blog is above the mean in most categories, but excels with great content, community, and blog network rank."

Community is all you guys, so thanks. No, our comment sections don't consistently hit 100 mark, but they're mostly of high quality, and 30+ comment threads are a lot more common than they were even six months ago. This is your site as much as ours, so keep up the great work.

The categories every blog was rated on include content, community, and influence, details of which are here. Subscription-based sites and those backed by traditional media outlets are not considered.

4 FanGraphs Baseball
5 Hardball Times
6 Athletics Nation

8 South Side Sox
9 Bleed Cubbie Blue
10 Beyond the Box Score

12 Halos Heaven
13 Lone Star Ball

well

aren’t most of these blogs connected anymore. almost all share the same community and authors.

yay

congrats, Sky. I know you emphasize the “Community” aspect, but that wouldn’t have happened without you’ve promoted the site, encouraged contributions, assimilated various writers. Etc.

I'm not a sabermetrician, but I do play one at Driveline Mechanics.

It's because of the FanShots.

In all seriousness, though, congrats. I’m happy we get to be small parts of such a big deal.
