Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game
Hardcover Library Binding Paperback Kindle Edition Audio CDMoneyball is a book about the Oakland Athletic's baseball team and the innovative methods they used to build a winning team. The book argues that traditional baseball scouting is flawed, and that there are better methods for identifying undervalued players. The Oakland A's, under the leadership of General Manager Billy Beane and his assistant, Paul DePodesta, used advanced statistical analysis to identify players who were overlooked by other teams. This approach helped the A's to win despite having a modest budget compared to many other teams. The book is an inspiring story of how and why the A's went about their business, and the lessons learned can be applied to many other fields outside of baseball.
