Thanks to the greater than 1,200 individuals who signed up for the FanGraphs Fan Trade Program. Congratulations to these of you who noticed out your complete week. Whereas everybody received to see their new workforce win no less than as soon as, I do really feel obliged to apologize to these of you who wound up with the Nationals and kicked off the week by watching them lose three straight to the Rockies.
Anecdotally, it looks as if this experiment was no less than a welcome change of tempo in the course of an extended baseball season, and some of you actually dedicated to the bit, which is nice. Nonetheless, I do have (admittedly modest) social science aspirations for this experiment, and in furtherance of that purpose, I wish to name on everybody who participated for one final favor:
I’ll look over the information within the coming weeks, so search for a précis of the outcomes someday across the All-Star break. I’ve additionally included questions right here to gauge the extent of curiosity in repeating this course of subsequent season, and what may change in Yr Two. If there’s enough curiosity, we’ll do all of it once more subsequent summer season.
Thanks once more in your participation, and I stay up for studying your ideas.
