Blinksportsnews247Aaron Judge said following the season that the Yankees needed to improve the way they communicated analytical data to players.
It seems that the Yankees’ decision-makers took notice of him since owner Hal Steinbrenner declared that he had brought Aaron Leanhardt on board as an analyst for the major league team, and his impact was already evident
This Monday, Judge told Greg Joyce of the New York Post, “I’m excited about him.” Being the analyst who stands between us and the analytics, he plays a useful role. Based on what I’ve observed thus far, he effectively conveys the material. I believe he will be adored by the guys.
Leanhardt taught physics at the University of Michigan for seven years before receiving his Ph.D. from MIT. He has been with the Yankees organization for seven seasons.
Judge remarked, “He’s definitely the smartest guy here,” according to The Post.
Judge told reporters in October, “We get a lot of numbers, but I think we might be looking at the wrong ones and maybe should value some other ones that some people might see as having no value.” “However, you have to grind and play through stuff when you’re playing 162 games. I believe that some things are beyond quantifiable.
