About Michael Lerra

I first got into baseball statistics as an undergrad psychology major who was lucky enough to have a thesis advisor that enjoyed baseball as much as I did. I'm the former HireMeTheo.com writer/webmaster - an endeavor that failed to get me a job in baseball, but actually did get me a job in search engine marketing and a whole new career. On any given day, you can find me optimizing advertising accounts in Excel and optimizing my draft board in my head.
