Moneyball by Michael Lewis revolutionized baseball by showing how statistical analysis could give teams an edge. Now every team employs analysts.

Kyle Boddy started Driveline Baseball to use new camera technology and data to improve pitching and hitting. He relies on AI to make sense of the data.
-
Driveline has worked with thousands of players and helped many improve, using customized training regimens informed by analytics.

Players invest their own money in Driveline to keep their performance data private from teams who might use it against them.

Players are ahead of other professions in using tech and data to improve performance and protect their interests. Boddy sees a version of this coming to more jobs.
