Description

Ahoy, Ahoy! This episode is dedicated to all the baseball statisticians and next-gen analytics nerds. Our economist compatriots (Andrew Butters. Ph.D., Scott Brave, and Kevin Roberts) unveil their recipe for measuring team chemistry. Their secret? Where traditional measures of performance combine individual contributions, they measure the overlap between players. They've coined it “Team Synergy,” and they think it can be the next frontier in sports analytics. We tend to believe them.
