Big Data Baseball by Travis Sawchick. The third book in the same vein that I've read. Basically the profile of a franchise that was mired in mediocrity (or worse) and used statistical analysis to bring about better on field results. The others were Moneyball and The Extra 2%. I could read one about every single franchise, if someone wrote one. Though I don't think there will be one about the Diamondbacks any time soon.


Also reading Malt by John Mallett. I got the set of four ingredient books about beer and picked that one to start with.

Just started Big Data and finally read Moneyball. Project have you read The Arm by Jeff Passan?
