Scouting and Scoring: How We Know What We Know about Baseball by Christopher Phillips

4.0

Really interesting history of scouting and scoring and trying to put the stories together in the context of how data is created. However, and this may be my sabermetric bias I found his argument about how scouts are creating data artifacts is comparable to the process of scoring and the creation of advanced metrics to be wanting.
