ARTICLES It’s Not About the Money: THE ROLE OF PREFERENCES, COGNITIVE BIASES, AND HEURISTICS AMONG PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES Michael A. McCann† I. INTRODUCTION Professional athletes are often regarded as selfish, greedy, and out-of-touch with regular people.

I know of no clear-cut exception to this rule in the history of baseball.” - Bill James, 1982 The words of Bill James have a way of turning into baseball doctrine. So when the czar of baseball stats offers his thoughts on the game, scores of fans stand and listen. In “The Bill James Baseball Abstract,” vintage 1982, James observed that any ballplayer destined to become a superstar will crack a major league starting lineup by his early twenties, at the very latest. The underlying lesson is that top-shelf talent in baseball just doesn’t just sit around gathering moss on the bench or in the minors before manifesting itself. Greatness is an aura that tends to glow so visibly at the younger ages that it’s nearly impossible for it to slip through the cracks. But a beautiful component of baseball is that the game thrives on deviation and surprise. Just when Lou Brock’s single-season stolen base record of 118 seemed far out of reach, along comes Rickey Henderson to trump Brock by ten percent. In 1992, Sports Illustrated listed the Roger Maris record of 61 home runs in a single season as one of the ten “truly inviolable” records in sports. Six years later, the record was smashed six times over a four-year span by three different players.

    SF Giants Press Clips Friday, March 17, 2017 San Francisco Chronicle Giants’ Christian Arroyo: next piece of homegrown infield? John Shea SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — The Giants love shortstops. Theirs is one of the best in baseball, Brandon Crawford. Their second baseman was drafted as a shortstop and converted in the minors, Joe Panik. They drafted Matt Duffy as a shortstop and taught him to play third base as a big-leaguer. Last summer, they traded for Eduardo Nuñez, who had played mostly shortstop during his career but played third after Duffy was traded to Tampa Bay. Heck, even Buster Posey played shortstop in college. No wonder the Giants’ top hitting prospect is a shortstop. Not that Christian Arroyo is targeted to play the position in the big leagues, not with Mr. Crawford in the house. Arroyo, who’s 21 going on 30, is the team’s third baseman of the future, and we’re not talking the distant future. It’s not unrealistic to imagine Arroyo playing third on Opening Day in 2018, so long as he continues to excel on the fast track. 1 “For me, they stressed the value of versatility,” Arroyo said at his Scottsdale Stadium locker. “Staying versatile is going to be huge.” Arroyo was the Giants’ top draft pick in 2013 — he was salutatorian at Hernando High School in Brooksville, Fla. — and he signed after turning down a scholarship from Florida, where he would have studied architectural engineering. He’s plenty smart enough to realize his ticket to the big leagues might not be at his No.
