I watched just about every game of Sunday Night Baseball last season where he was one of the color commentators. I found his analysis to be right on the money and he wasn't afraid to call players on bonehead plays. The other two announcers said he was the first person in the park before the Sunday games and would check every nook and cranny of the playing surface. He's a strong personality, and he's got stones. There won't be any drinking beers at the far end of the bench on his watch. I think the ownership of the Red Sox know what they're doing.
One of my favorite quotes is from John Henry, "To the extent that you can remove bias and replace it with data, you gain an advantage."
Prejudice and unsubstantiated beliefs create values in the marketplace. That's the kind of approach that makes you the 77th richest guy in the country.
