"Moneyball" is about offensive analytics edge and exploiting that. . .

The 2024 WS was about exploiting the defensive weakness observed, and how to exploit that. .

And why the Red Sox traded Mookie Betts is beyond me. . .
He practices the same way Larry Bird practiced. .

Looking for perfection and finding excellence. . .
So your whole "take" on the series, boils down to 2 poor plays (plays that both player have executed numerous times - not forgetting Judge's incredible catch earlier). Given - not covering first base was the "straw that broke the camel's back". If the bullpen hadn"t folded (in ealier games), you would be singing a different tune. So your logic is very 20/20 hindsighted.
