The future is coming. Though analytics have been a huge part to the game in years prior, they have emerged even greater in recent years. Groopman will be taking over a role in the Milwaukee Brewers international scouting division.
After a decade working heavily in the expansion of the Kansas City Royals analytic department, Groopman looks to apply that to his new role. It is an excellent signing for the organization. The Columbia University graduate will bring a lot to the Brewer family.
With huge international names coming to the forefront it will be important to find the needle in the haystack.
