Description

Today's podcast analyzes how the Los Angeles Dodgers built their 2024 World Series Championship team through analytics and strategic investments from ownership. I cover Guggenheim and Magic Johnson's $2.1 billion purchase of the team in 2012, how President of Baseball Operations Andrew Friedman overhauled the team's front office with a focus on analytics and performance science, the Dodgers' creative free agent spending methods, and more. Enjoy!
