This is a good read about the modern baseball game and how it is played by Rob Neyer. A really good read about how things have changed and some ideas to improve--some of which have happened. It was written around a game in Sept 2017 between the Astros and the A's. Funny thing is he kept talking about how this Astro team was such a great hitting team but book was written before the Astros sign stealing came to light--I had a hard time putting that out of my thoughts as I was reading it. I wish he could have stapled a chapter at end with his thoughts on that. Still good look at baseball at that time. Of course other big thing since then is the pandemic and I guess to a much lesser extent the owners & players getting through a work stoppage and getting a new agreement signed. A good read about baseball.
There are 5 WL for this book so I will post & mail off at some point.
