Analytics can help but can also harm. I remember watching moneyball, and I believe I’m correct in saying they used stats and other stuff to figure out the magic team, which did seem to work, until it didn’t and things went sideways.
I’m sure John is sitting there feeling nice and smug that his plan worked out, Hoffman didn’t screw it up, and they got the W. I have this feeling that the bill is going to come due fairly soon, and it’ll be a very big bill.
