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.
好故事。雖然我不懂棒球降低瞭它的趣味。每個無效都代錶一個機會。但糾正無效可能是一個很艱辛的過程。

評分唬唬不怎麼懂棒球的人還有點用。。但實際的棒球運作沒有劉易斯說得那麼簡單。Billy Beane怎麼可能讓劉易斯把自己成功的秘訣全部公之於眾呢。。
評分Loved Lewis' tone.
Billy Beane, the main character in this book, was a overrate hot prospect, was a scout at the age of 31, but his career as general manger brings more far-reaching effect on baseball, or we could barely say, on the whole professional sports. On the first da...

評分在收藏夹里存了好久了,前几天手欠买了下来……虽然对大陆译者把握棒球题材的能力早有心理准备,可到手之后还是大吃一惊——文中有大量的错译、漏译(而且漏的往往是能展现作者语言风格的促狭话),以及同一个词前后译法不同的情况。 不推荐购买法律出版社这一版(不知道早年...
