Terms of the deals were not disclosed. The an- nouncement was made by Astros General Manager James Click. The drafted players to sign this week were RHP Alex Santos II (#72 overall), who officially signed today, RHP Tyler Brown (third round), OF Zach Daniels (fourth round) and SS Shay Whitcomb (fifth round). The undrafted free agents to sign with Houston this week were 2B J.C. Correa, the younger brother of Astros SS Carlos Correa, OF Justin Dirden, RHP Cesar Gomez, RHP Kyle Gruller, RHP Zack Matthews and 1B/LF Peter Zimmermann. Santos, 18, highlights the Astros draft class as the club’s top selection and as the only high school player taken by the Astros in this year’s draft. Drafted out of Mount Saint Michael Academy in the Bronx, NY, Santos had his high school senior season canceled in 2020, but did play extensively on the Summer showcase circuit, earning a spot on the 2019 USA Baseball’s 40-man 18U National Team Trials Roster. Entering the draft, Santos was ranked as the 15th overall high school prospect by Baseball America and as the 56th overall player in the draft by MLB Pipeline. Santos is one of five right-handed pitchers to sign with the Astros, while the club has also added three infielders and two outfielders to make up their 10 current signees.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS USING CONVENTIONAL AND SABERMETRIC BASEBALL STATISTICS FOR PREDICTING MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WIN PERCENTAGE VICTORIA DECESARE SPRING 2016 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Science with honors in Statistics Reviewed and approved* by the following: Andrew Wiesner Lecturer of Statistics Thesis Supervisor David Hunter Department Head of Statistics Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Major League Baseball is dominated by statistical analysis; one cannot watch a baseball game on the television without hearing and seeing a plethora of statistics such as batting average, runs batted in, earned run average, and the list goes on. In addition to these popular stats that most people are familiar with, there are several, more complex baseball statistics – known as “sabermetric” statistics – that have been developed over the past few decades that seek to evaluate players and the game more scientifically and comprehensively. However, with all of these stats available, it is easy to get caught up in the data and overlook the main goal of MLB teams: to win games. With this in mind, the goal of this research is to explore some of the numerous baseball statistics available, both the traditional and modern ones, and observe which ones are truly the best at predicting wins. Encompassing this, is it better to use the more complex methods in analyzing how teams win, or does it hold true that “less is more”? This research seeks to answer these questions and to provide a unique perspective for fans and managers alike when trying to make use of the ever-growing world of baseball data.
