WIN METHOD Selection 3

This will be the final points on the WIN METHOD selection process. In the future we will discuss how the WIN METHOD determines the truly best of the best players. The WIN METHOD became active in 1994 after a two year evaluation period. The great YANKEE teams of the mid nineties and hence have predominantly been selected through the WIN METHOD process. Not every single player, but 90% of them. Since the WIN METHODS active inception the YANKEE team has had the best record in baseball, and has consistently been the dominant team. Unfortunately, some players signed have not been WIN METHOD selected. Those signed to minor status (role player) do not hurt the team to a great degree. Those signed to major status (starting position player(, to this day still tend to cripple the team. Playing for ones self, individual stats and individual recognition does not bode well for team chemistry. These players tend to perform well in less meaningful situations, yet tend to fail miserably and consistently when big games are on the line. As we move into the next phase, the WIN METHOD player evaluation, you will see and be able to understand why these players are the best in the game. They WIN, and help their team WIN. The reason the game of baseball in played.

WIN METHOD Selection 2

Delving deeper in the WIN METHOD selection process. The interview is paramount to determining which players can help your team to success. Most baseball enthusiasts just look at stats and make their selections in that manner. Many teams interview players to some minor degree, but their selection is still made using misleading stats.
The WIN METHOD interview reaches the inner soul and beliefs of players. The WIN METHOD determines which players are wiling to help their team succeed over their own individual statistics. Players who are satisfied and accept hitting behind a runner, reaching base safely in any form to keep an inning going, accepting a single in a clutch situation, giving up their body to make a big time defensive play. The WIN METHOD interview was developed and is evolving over a 40 year period. Job seekers in the business world, many times, are hired on the basis of an interview. In other words, there are brilliant people that come from no-name schools that can help businesses succeed more than those from Ivy League schools. The same thing is true in the baseball industry. The greatest players can come from any background and from anywhere. That is where the WIN METHOD selection process comes in. Being used by only one team in Major League Baseball, it has made that team the most consistently dominant and successful team in baseball. The WIN METHOD is able to determine both what free agents and what draftees may be able to help the team and organization to the most success. The greatest asset of the WIN METHOD interview, is that the people being interviewed are not aware of the process they are undergoing. One caveat however, a player can be WIN METHOD for one team and not another, or he can be WIN METHOD for several different teams. It depends on the player. However, only one team truly knows if they have a WIN METHOD player or not.
Here's a tip to you readers, the next time you go for a job interview, be on your toes, prepare, and respond honestly. The great interviewer gives great interviews and can read through the BS.

WIN METHOD Selection

The WIN METHOD is comprised of two separate entities. First, there is the player selection process. Second, there is the player rating process. This blog entry will deal with the first step, the player selection process.

As many of you know, the player selection in almost every sport is done by the amassing of voluminous amounts of individual statistics on players from high school, college, Latin American leagues, Japanese leagues, minor leagues, etc. Yet in every sport some of the greatest players come 'out of the woodwork' so to speak. They are the 'no individual stat guys' picked in the very late rounds that confound the foolish stat mavens who know little to nothing about anything. Most teams also use a very minor interview process with players they are looking at. Here is where the WIN METHOD comes in.

The WIN METHOD selection process is a highly evolved and evolving (over 50 years in the developing) process that finds what makes a player tick, looks into his soul and inner desires, then determines his ability to help a team win. The object of the game of baseball is for the team to win games, reach the playoffs, win the pennant, and then win the World Series. This is accomplished by all the players on a team helping each other to help their team win games. This is not accomplished by how many or how much any one player amasses in individual statistics. The goal of winning is attained by WHEN players deliver for their team. The WIN METHOD interview process can determine which players are best suited to helping a team win. Players who do not care what their individual stats are, but players who would rather help their team win, by doing whatever is needed at any time and producing in a timely manner when the games may be on the line and the pressure is at its highest.

The goal of the WIN METHOD is finding these players who would rather win than attain individual statistics. Did any of you ever ask yourselves....why are some players in the post season every year?... why do some players win multiple pennants and World Series?... why do some players with some of the greatest individual stats flounder in achieving these goals? The key to the greatest WIN METHOD players, is not how much or how many you attain for yourself, but WHEN you attain for the team. The WIN METHOD through a highly developed, highly sophisticated, and unparalleled process is able to find many of these players.

Another of the components of the WIN METHOD selection, is the player wanting to play for the team. Yes getting paid as much as he can, but primarily wanting to sign with a team he wants to play for. Throw in the WIN METHODS ability to determine if a player may be able to perform under pressure and in the big time or big city lights, and you come up with many winners who will help their team achieve its goals.

As we go forward in this blog, you will see just how all this determines who the best players are and why. The key being, not how much nor how many anyone attains for himself, but WHEN he achieves for the team.
