Descrição do livro

Baseball has never had more data. The hard part is knowing what it means.

Why can a .270 hitter create more offense than a .300 hitter? Why can two pitchers with similar ERAs have completely different underlying performances? And what are advanced metrics actually telling you about the game?

Baseball Analytics for Beginners turns modern baseball statistics into clear questions that any curious fan can understand—without coding, advanced mathematics, or a statistics degree.

Instead of memorizing acronyms, you’ll learn how the numbers fit together:

BOX SCORE → SKILL → CONTEXT → VALUE → DECISION

You’ll discover how to:

• Move beyond batting average, RBI, and ERA without dismissing what they still tell you
• Understand on-base percentage, OPS+, wRC+, expected statistics, WAR, FIP, OAA, and other modern metrics
• Read exit velocity, launch angle, hard-hit rate, barrels, pitch movement, spin, and plate-discipline data
• Separate results from underlying performance—and small-sample noise from meaningful change
• Evaluate hitting, pitching, defense, and baserunning in context
• Understand run expectancy, win probability, leverage, and the logic behind in-game decisions
• See how tracking technology, prediction models, and AI are changing baseball analysis

The goal is not to turn you into a statistician. It is to help you watch baseball differently.

Stop memorizing numbers. Start understanding the questions behind them.
