Randy Wolf Will Not Be Writing For NotGraphs: The E-mails Revealed

Hi Randy,

How’s it going? Remember that contract you signed? The one that offered you a chance to write for NotGraphs and said that we’d try you out this spring and if we liked your stuff, we’d give you a million dollars? Guess what? We like your stuff! Welcome to the team. Just give me a call about some details. Thanks.

Best,
Jack Z., guest editor, NotGraphs

Jack,

Terrific! Excited to share everything I know about bat flips and mustaches. I’m a little tied up with the pitching, so if you could just let me know the details over e-mail, that would be great.

Thanks,
Randy

Randy,

Oh, it’s nothing really. We just wanted to have you sign some stuff. We call it a 45 day waiver, it’s really no big deal.

Love,
Jack

Jack,

What would I be waiving?

Sincerely,
Randy

Randy,

Just your salary.

Kisses,
Jack

Sorry, on a plane, the quick version of the 45 day waiver, how it works and how teams manipulate players with it. pic.twitter.com/LV6Qf7fuWI
