　　Moneyball is a quest for the secret of success in baseball.

Following the low-budget Oakland Athletics, their larger-than-life

general manger, Billy Beane, and the strange brotherhood of amateur

baseball enthusiasts, Michael Lewis has written not only "the

single most influential baseball book ever" (Rob Neyer, Slate) but

also what "may be the best book ever written on business" (Weekly

Standard). I wrote this book because I fell in love with a story.

The story concerned a small group of undervalued professional

baseball players and executives, many of whom had been rejected as

unfit for the big leagues, who had turned themselves into one of

the most successful franchises in Major League Baseball. But the

idea for the book came well before I had good reason to write

it-before I had a story to fall in love with. It began, really,

with an innocent question: how did one of the poorest teams in

baseball, the Oakland Athletics, win so many games? With these

words Michael Lewis launches us into the funniest, smartest, and

most contrarian book since, well, since Liar's Poker. Moneyball is

a quest for something as elusive as the Holy Grail, something that

money apparently can't buy: the secret of success in baseball. The

logical places to look would be the front offices of major league

teams, and the dugouts, perhaps even in the minds of the players

themselves. Lewis mines all these possibilities-his intimate and

original portraits of big league ballplayers are alone worth the

price of admission-but the real jackpot is a cache of

numbers-numbers -collected over the years by a strange brotherhood

of amateur baseball enthusiasts: software engineers, statisticians,

Wall Street analysts, lawyers and physics professors. What these

geek numbers show-no, prove-is that the traditional yardsticks of

success for players and teams are fatally flawed. Even the box

score misleads us by ignoring the crucial importance of the humble

base-on-balls. This information has been around for years, and

nobody inside Major League Baseball paid it any mind. And then came

Billy Beane, General Manager of the Oakland Athletics. Billy paid

attention to those numbers -with the second lowest payroll in

baseball at his disposal he had to-and this book records his

astonishing experiment in finding and fielding a team that nobody

else wanted. Moneyball is a roller coaster ride: before the 2002

season opens, Oakland must relinquish its three most prominent (and

expensive) players, is written off by just about everyone, and then

comes roaring back to challenge the American League record for

consecutive wins. In a narrative full of fabulous characters and

brilliant excursions into the unexpected, Michael Lewis shows us

how and why the new baseball knowledge works. He also sets up a sly

and hilarious morality tale: Big Money, like Goliath, is always

supposed to win...how can we not cheer for David?

如果有人做出了某种你无法理解的举动，而你只是因为这种举动没有先例就对他大加嘲讽，这不仅仅是无知短视的表现，更会让你蒙受意想不到的损失。想象力匮乏的结果，便是市场的无效率。

他找不到也不会找到第二个杰森吉昂比，但她可以把杰森吉昂比拆分成不同的能力组合，然后挑出最不可或缺的能力，用很少一笔钱买下这个能力

用奥克兰运动家队小联盟扶着人基斯·李普曼的话说，其他新秀球员，都得经历“现实”的磨砺。李普曼说，现实“就是你意识到，如果你要在球队中生存下去，你就必须调整自己打球的方式”。但是杰瑞米·布朗不必调整自己，需要调整的是除了他之外的整个世界。整个世界也的确为他进行了调整。

“查得”，穆斯的口气更像牧师而不是教练，“你有多想打职业棒球？”

“职业棒球是我唯一的梦想。”

八年前，他的牧师兼教练给了他一本“秘籍”，让他在高中棒球队里有了一席之地。八年后，他终于可以在大联盟球队里使出自己的必杀技了。

1999年春季集训时，白袜队总经理，前大联盟投手容·舒勒告诉查德，他的投球已经很不如以前那么富有变化，所以，球队要把他送回三A联盟。查德并没有胆量说出他心里真正的想法：我的球没变化？我的投球，唯一的特点就是变化。

书籍介绍

This is The New York Times best-selling book behind the major motion picture starring Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Opening this autumn, Moneyball is the story of the Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt). He has an epiphany: all conventional baseball wisdom is wrong. Reinventing his team on a budget, he needs to outsmart the richer teams. Joining with Ivy Leaguer Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), they recruit bargain players whom the scouts consider flawed but who have a knack for getting on base, scoring runs and winning games. They'll either be the laughing stock of baseball or its vindicated underdogs. Moneyball is a Columbia Pictures release directed by Bennett Miller (Capote), from the screenplay written by Steven Zaillian (Gangs of New York) and Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network), and produced by Michael De Luca The Social Network) Rachael Horovitz (Grey Gardens) and Scott Rudin (The Social Network).
