In Their Own Words

Vincent A. Gennaro, MBA’77

Diamond Dollars is a provocative, insightful and analytical look at the business of baseball by author Vince Gennaro, a consultant to MLB teams. It delves deeply into a team's win-revenue relationship and how a team's competitiveness affects the dollar value of its players. Gennaro also quantifies a team's cost of player development, explores how farm system productivity contributes to a team's economic value and discusses the dramatic impact of team-owned regional sports networks on a team's economics.
