The author of "Astroball" Ben Reiter talks about how he was able to make the prediction in 2014 when the Houston Astros were the worst team in baseball, that they would win the World Series in 2017. Ben is a senior writer for Sports Illustrated and talks about how he had an open mind going into observing the Astros in 2014. We go over how the Astros were able to quantify most of the decisions they made and why scouts will never go away.
