MONEYBALL
Quick Reads - A podcast by Pratham Malhotra

Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game by Michael Lewis tells the story of how the Oakland Athletics, led by General Manager Billy Beane, used data analytics to build a competitive baseball team on a limited budget. Instead of relying on traditional scouting methods, Beane and his team used sabermetrics—advanced statistical analysis—to identify undervalued players. This data-driven approach revolutionized baseball and later influenced other sports and industries. Moneyball is not just about baseball; it’s a lesson in challenging conventional wisdom, making smarter decisions with data, and finding value where others overlook it
