FIDDLER'S FACTS: No love for analytics | Regional-Sports | Sports | Cape Breton Post
I don’t know if it’s the coronavirus (COVID-19 strain) pandemic, the semi-isolation that goes with the ill wind, the diminishing salary caps in every sport or perhaps the role that analytics is playing with various coaches/managers, but strange things are happening in professional sports.
The Atlanta Braves gave the National League crown to the L.A. Dodgers with boneheaded base-running mistakes that one would not find in the low amateur leagues. In Game 7, the Braves led 3-2 and had runners on second and third with nobody out. The Dodgers moved the infield defenders onto the baseline, which should have alerted Atlanta that a contact play was doomed from the outset.

Tibco to buy Information Builders' tech for analytics, integration. But will it blend? | ZDNet
ZDNet spoke to the CEOs of both companies, who explained the synergies they see arising from the acquisition. In describing the two companies' courtship, IBI CEO Frank J. Vella thought compatibility was very high: "...you're not often in a luxurious position to pick your buyer; it has to be mutual," Vella said. He added "...there was a lot of interest. We were pleasantly surprised and flattered at the interest.
Tibco CEO Dan Streetman agreed with Vella's assessment on compatibility, saying "To Frank's point, the place where we have potentially the most overlap in a Venn diagram might be in visualizations and analytics, but we have this thesis that analytics are way more than BI and way more than visualizations. It's hyperconverged analytics, and that really extends all the way to the integration and the data preparation...so we see a lot of great synergies in culture, but also in products.
