Biomechanics story...

Long Sox Machine story on the role of biomechanics with the organization:

Fans, some team employees, and even some media members can dream of a Justin Ishbia capital infusion radically changing the White Sox's financial capabilities at some later date and time. But in Sox baseball operations, they are quite plainly still talking about leveraging their small player development operation into making the South Side a place where careers can be kickstarted or resuscitated. And if they're certainly not going to offer the most robust biomechanical data in the league, they can strive to be the team with a five-star boutique operation that delivers it with a bespoke, artisan touch.

Thanks. Good article. Really gives you a good look into revamping the development process. Very proactive instead of reactive.

Agreed, that is very unusual for this organization.

Isn't this the entire point?  If you weren't going to treat everyone differently based on underlying data and information, why would you spend money to gather it in the first place?  I swear some people just reprint exactly what they are told.  Either that or they never worked with data sets themselves.  Data should always tell you what direction to go.  If it doesn't, you aren't doing it right.

All for the purpose of trading

This article makes me think they are catching up to the rest of the major league teams.

Sounds like they have a different spins as well. The comment about working with coaches ti distill the information down for the players as opposed to just giving it all to the players is one. The other is the is thebproactice analysis and alterations as opposed to reactive is different.

Right, not sure where I saw it, might have been some spring training fluff on the Mariners radio, but the new thinking is unless they ask for it, to only give the players data the coaches and analytics guys have decided is actionable.
