A new movie is coming out this weekend called Moneyball starring Brad Pitt who portrays Billy Bean, the manger of the Oakland A's who was really the groundbreaking GM in terms of using modern advanced statistics in evaluating players as opposed to relying on the human eye of scouts. While the A's haven't won a championship, they certainly became a wonder-team for several years during Beane's tenure. Mandi and I will be watching this weekend, hopefully!
