Wendy Thurm

Contributor

Wendy wrote most of the prose and poetry in her high school yearbook. Some of it had to do with baseball. She then embarked on a twenty-five year odyssey that had nothing to do with baseball, if you don’t count the thousands of games she attended, watched, listened to and obsessed about.

In February 2011, Wendy created HangingSliders.com, a blog with baseball analysis, commentary, humor and poetry. Lots of folks like you read the blog and liked it, which was really great.

Wendy’s been writing features for Baseball Nation since September 2011 and is delighted to join the staff as a contributor. She is also a contributor to FanGraphs.
