Using Markov Chains to Evaluate the Hitting of the 2009 Toronto Blue Jays

This is a paper I wrote for one of my statistics classes last year. The goal of the paper was to figure out the run probabilities for each of the 24 base-out states in baseball (8 base states, 3 out states). I have included the matrices I used to create the run expectancy table if you would like more background info on how exactly the table was created.

Predicting MLB Salaries through Offensive Statistics

This is a paper I wrote for my Econometrics class on predicting MLB Salaries through offensive statistics before and after Moneyball was written. It is a pretty long paper (15 pages plus figures, graphs, etc.), but it nicely blends economics and baseball.
