Rant: Fangraph's Colors

Mine are much more eye pleasing.

I wish they'd incorporate some more things into the graphs, like WPA and the new Value wins and Runs categories.

At least they have a modern-day layout, unlike Baseball Reference (which, by the way, will soon be changed into something a lot more visually-appealing).

Really? That makes me nervous.

I think it's very readable as it is. It's simple and it loads fast. Certain things could work better, like comparing players, and calling up different splits. Yet overall I'm pretty happy with it.

I have this fear that one day I'm going to read a headline that says "Google decides to add features to it's front page." This gives me the same feeling.

EDIT - Okay, nevermind - it looks pretty decent. Still nice and simple. Found this link:

I especially like the Teams page. It shows how many players have come through the organization. That's neat.

Check out how much better that is. The stats are finally in tables (the big benefit to that is that they don't have to use an ugly font); you can even sort the tables using any of the column headers.
