When Keith started Cleveland's baseball analytics group in 2007, the "Moneyball" revolution was just starting. Almost 20 years later, every major league team has multiple data scientists collaborating behind the scenes with coaches, scouts, and executives to make teams more competitive. Keith will share insights into how front offices improve in-game strategy, player forecasting, and acquisition decisions by using technology, data management, machine learning, and statistical analysis.
