Mike Silva Chronicles - Part 9: Fantasy Game
Do you think advanced metrics real value is creating better Fantasy Game Products. I personally think it would be the best way to monetize the industry on a higher level.
Their “real” value? They have real value to the front offices of MLB. They also have real value to Gamers as well. They have value to fans. They have value to anyone who has a question that starts with “why” or “how”. Sabermetrics tries to paint the picture by interpreting the numbers, by trying to figure out the context that those numbers were put up in, so we can see how much we can tie those numbers back to the players in question, and how much we can expect to see those numbers going forward.
And yes, the best way to monetize sabermetrics is through Fantasy baseball. This is because Fantasy baseball is a bigger industry than the corporate part of MLB. It’s kind of weird to think about it, but when you strip away the salaries and other player compensation, and you realize that each team operates independently, you are left with a small shop, with a couple of dozen employees, and revenues to match.
