"Out-getting" Is the Next Great Baseball Strategy. Or Not.
Update: 2019-03-07
Description
Most Counterpoints listeners are well familiar with the sweeping changes that Moneyball brought to offensive strategy in baseball. Are we now on the cusp of a similarly profound transformation of pitching? Some believe the practice of "out-getting" is just that. Out-getting focuses getting outs as efficiently as possible, irrelevant of who gets them, when, and how. It upends traditional convention about how long or frequently a pitcher should pitch, in which role, or in which circumstances. Will out-getting prove to be a Moneyball-level transformation that ushers in fundamental change or just an occasional strategy deployed as much by desperation as by tactical brilliance? Ben and Paul disagree.
