Description
Baseball is a sport that lends itself to analysis and self-reflection. Its complex nature makes it a thinking game as much as a physical one. As the sport continues to evolve, new metrics and approaches are being adopted by teams and fans alike. The Shift explores the intersection of sabermetrics and cognitive science, offering a fresh perspective on how data and logic can inform our understanding of baseball. With expertise in clinical psychology and experience working in major league front offices, Russell Carleton provides a nuanced analysis of the game's most pressing issues. From infield shifts to broader cultural assumptions, Carleton examines the ways in which data and intangibles are intertwined. This book invites readers to look at baseball with fresh eyes, making it accessible to both casual fans and those who follow advanced statistics.
