Billy Beane, general manager of MLB's Oakland A's and protagonist of Michael Lewis's Moneyball, had a problem: how to win in the Major Leagues with a budget that's smaller than that of nearly every other team. Conventional wisdom long held that big name, highly athletic hitters and young pitchers with rocket arms were the ticket to success. But Beane and his staff, buoyed by massive amounts of carefully interpreted statistical data, believed that wins could be had by more affordable methods such as hitters with high on-base percentage and pitchers who get lots of ground outs. Given this information and a tight budget, Beane defied tradition and his own scouting department to build winning teams of young affordable players and inexpensive castoff veterans.
Lewis was in the room with the A's top management as they spent the summer of 2002 adding and subtracting players and he provides outstanding play-by-play. In the June player draft, Beane acquired nearly every prospect he coveted (few of whom were coveted by other teams) and at the July trading deadline he engaged in a tense battle of nerves to acquire a lefty reliever. Besides being one of the most insider accounts ever written about baseball, Moneyball is populated with fascinating characters. We meet Jeremy Brown, an overweight college catcher who most teams project to be a 15th round draft pick (Beane takes him in the first). Sidearm pitcher Chad Bradford is plucked from the White Sox triple-A club to be a key set-up man and catcher Scott Hatteberg is rebuilt as a first baseman. But the most interesting character is Beane himself. A speedy athletic can't-miss prospect who somehow missed, Beane reinvents himself as a front-office guru, relying on players completely unlike, say, Billy Beane. Lewis, one of the top nonfiction writers of his era (Liar's Poker, The New New Thing), offers highly accessible explanations of baseball stats and his roadmap of Beane's economic approach makes Moneyball an appealing reading experience for business people and sports fans alike.
Michael Lewis is the author of the bestsellers Liar's Poker and The New New Thing. He lives in Berkeley, California, with his wife, Tabitha Soren, and their two daughters.

台风天里窝在客厅读书,尽管耳畔仍能听到狂风呼啸而过的音响,心中却仍不时出现王健民站在投手丘上威风八面的样子。几天前传来的消息,王健民列入洋基的伤兵名单,这个球季可能没再上场主投的机会。所留下几乎是洋基队里先发投手群中最佳的投球内容纪录,洋基队算是挖到了个宝...
评分最近从朋友处得知《点球成金》(Moneyball)的简体中文译本已出版上市。起初,自己对国内有人愿意翻译并出版这本以棒球为主题的专著感到非常惊讶。毕竟棒球在国内仍属于非常小众的运动。等拿到手后,方才明白出版方对此书的市场定位:一本经营管理类的畅销书。作者迈克尔•刘...
评分塞斯·卡拉曼为《证券分析》(第六版)撰写“前言”时提到,格雷厄姆的价值投资理念不仅适用于金融市场,刘易斯撰写的《魔球》指出了它同样适用于棒球运动员市场。“无论是投资还是选择棒球运动员,没有一成不变的方法能够弄清楚其真实的价值,也没有一个很好的指标就能够衡量...
评分曾经喜欢玩一款游戏,《足球经理》(Football Manager),前后玩了有十年。这个游戏就是个数据库,作为球队的经理/主教练,你完全用数据去选择球员,买卖他们,经营一家球队。 也喜欢个玩意儿叫股市,股市的非有效性(inefficiency)造成了市场中必然会有被低估和被高估的公司...
