Hi All,

Len Kasper here (yes, it's really me). If there is a moderator who can confirm it's me via my registration information, that would be great. I used to occasionally do Cubs.com message board Q&As but that doesn't exist any longer and I've checked this board occasionally just to see what fans are saying outside of the Twitter world. I kinda like the "old school" nature of message boards sometimes. Anyway, if you have any questions or SUGGESTIONS (yes!), let me have 'em. Hope you're all doing well, thanks. Len

Before you guys get crazy, I'll say up front this does not appear to be a mult.

Len I’m not a huge fan of SABR guys and I know how you feel about pitcher wins and batting average so we’re already at odds . That being said if this really is you , cool of you to join up and I’ll see you in the Quintana thread

One could make an effort to prove themselves if they took a selfie and posted it to the board about, oh, 15 minutes before they post the same exact pic to their twitter account and also gives a shoutout to the board as well.

Now, let's see if that happens.

Welcome aboard. I consider myself someone who helped get you hired because I sent daily hate mail to chip caray. You're welcome.
Please tell jorr that pitcher wins is a team and therefore silly stat.

Welcome Len. You're one of the best PBP guys around. Give me a call if JD contract talks ever stall.

Suggestions:
• more kermit voice home run calls. fun-bad!
• more honesty/criticism about bad players and play(s). example: chatwood
• more honesty/criticism of maddon. dude is half a bottle in by the 6th inning in 50% of the games i've watched
• grow a moostache



question: how hard is it to not break out laughing when coomdawg smokes out the booth with a giant ass rip in the middle of a broadcast?

So no proof has been offered then? Shocking.

I think the chances of this being Len Kasper are about the same as it being Len Dawson.

Here is a respectful suggestion: while it is ok and maybe expected to be less objective in your duties while employed by the Cubs, when you are draped in the title of baseball expert to an independent media outlet objectivity is a prerequisite.

Also, people who read and regurgitate sabermetric analysis produced by others are to sabermetrics what a guy looking into a telescope in his backyard is to astronomy.

A perfect example was maybe10 days ago.. Addy runs way too far out in left field and ducks up a routine catch by Almora or Schwarber.. 2 runs score and him and JD say nothing.

Can we talk about the use of the term slideball and how we can bury it in the backyard. I'm distracted by the broadcast by irrational angry.

But are not, in fact, astronomers. They are observers of nature. Just as the amateur observer would feel uncomfortable labeling himself an astronomer in a group of professionals, so should the saber hobbyist
