Padres Analytics

Dave Cameron, head of the Padres Analytics section, is leaving the Padres. The East Village Times suggests that San Diego did a poor job of communicating data to players:

The Padres have come under recent scrutiny for failing to implement the baseball data they collect into information that can easily be digested. Players have the information, and it can be overwhelming trying to make sense of it all.

In general, there seems to be a lot wrong with the Padres.
