* Naturally, this poses a major danger to schlubs . . . you might allow yourself to get too comfortable at home and become slothful and withdrawn.

“Grady Fuson, the A’s soon to be former head of scouting, had taken a high school pitcher named Jeremy Bonderman. The kid had a 94-mile-perhour fastball, a clean delivery, and a body that looked as if it had been created to wear a baseball uniform. He was, in short, precisely the kind of pitcher Billy [Beane] thought he had trained his scouting department to avoid.”

—Michael Lewis, Moneyball
