Luhnow’s Moneyball

Astros GM Jeff Luhnow is very aware of the critics but he says in this Joshua Green Business Week article that he’s developed thick skin.  This is a fascinating look at Luhnow, his philosophies & the Astros Moneyball approach.  Listen to this quote from the piece by Astros 29 year old Assistant GM David Stearns.  “We enjoy the notion that our report card is in the paper every single morning, that success and failure is so easily defined by wins and losses. Where we are right now in our organizational cycle, that report card isn’t as flattering as we would like.”
