BBWAA: The path to becoming relevant

The BBWAA is slowly dragging themselves into relevance. 

Today, they added four writers whose contributions can be found mainly on the Internet.  Congratulations go out to Will Carroll and Kristina Kahrl of Baseball Prospectus and Rob Neyer and Keith Law of ESPN.com.

This is big.  Yes, it was a long time coming and it’s not enough but it’s a slow recognition that many most sports fans are getting their sports news from the web whether it be from a brick and mortar newspaper’s web presence or from a new fangly web site out there.  It’s time the BBWAA started to recognize that. 

Now maybe the BBWAA can do something about their god awful looking web site.
