Hayden is an avid baseball fan and sabermetrics enthusiast based in Toronto. When not writing, he can be found obsessing over an obscure indie-folk band, pretentiously seeking out the best coffee shop in the city or tweeting furiously about why the Rogers Centre is, in fact, a great place to take in a ballgame. A first-year student at Ryerson University, Hayden's work has been featured on BlueJaysAggr, MLB Trade Rumors and on the Jays Journal Podcast.
