In 2017, the Houston Astros won the World Series for the first time in franchise history. Constructing a championship team in professional sports requires front office executives to make difficult decisions. Making those decisions requires the correct balance of subjective observations and also impartial data analytics.

At this event, Jeff Luhnow and Reid Ryan will discuss how they use data and experience to assemble a world-class franchise.
