I was wrong about Moneyball. I thought it unlikely that anyone who’s not a baseball fan would be very interested in stats, on-base percentage and the Oakland As. But sure enough, it’s scoring big box office numbers… and as baseball movies go, it’s got plenty of mainstream appeal. But Moneyball is not just about baseball is it? It’s for anybody who’s ever dreamed of taking on the big guys, of challenging the way things are… and it’s about believing in yourself. I loved this movie. Finding undervalued players is at the core of the story. And I was wondering if there’s a sabermetrics for offensive linemen? I mean the 49ers could use some help there…
