As I’ve watched site readership grow, the thing that I’m most excited about is the number of active commenters we have, as discussion is really what makes this site tick. With this also comes unintended consequences, namely specific posts getting taken off topic with discussions not really relevant to that post. Because I try to give his place a “website” feel, as opposed to just a run of the mill blog, I try to keep everything on track. But I think I’ve figured out how to do that, and how to also promote plenty of discussion as well. Every morning I’m going to start a new thread called the daily discussion. In that, I’ll post the games for the Phillies affiliates that day. You can use that post every day to discuss the day’s relevant games, or any other random topic related to Phillies prospects. If you want to ponder trading Savery, Cardenas and Carrasco for Joe Blanton, you can ponder it in the daily discussion. My goal is to try and keep the other topics on topic. I don’t want to talk about the major league team in Jeff’s weekly Clearwater post, because he spends time working on it, and we should be discussing the things he touches on, and the Clearwater team, not lots of other random stuff. So now we’ll have an outlet for the random discussion, and hopefully it promotes even more discussion. So, check below the fold for today’s games…
