The Only Rule Is It Has to Work
Our Wild Experiment Building a New Kind of Baseball Team [Includes a New Afterword]
Ben Lindbergh
Discover what happens when two outsiders are given the chance to run a professional baseball team, using advanced statistics to assemble and run a team. Follow along as they navigate real-life challenges, including guiding the first openly gay player in professional baseball with the goal of one cardinal rule: it has to work. Will their approach lead to victory or ruin, and will they defy sport’s traditional wisdom or prove it right? This wild ride is perfect for baseball enthusiasts and numbers geeks alike, proving you don’t need a bat or glove to make a difference in the game.

The MVP Machine
Future Value
The Only Rule is it Has to Work
Then YOU MUST watch:
