I thought this was a well written argument (outside of the sarcastic use of A.S.S.) until the very end. Your arguments taking apart moneyball were well reasoned.

However, from the sentence that says, "Baseball is a non-linear system." to end, you undo everything. First of all, saying that something is obvious is not a good argument. Furthermore, how does baseball being a non-linear system make it follow that clutch hitters exist, the playoffs are not luck etc.

I think all 4 of your points are up for debate. However, by stating they are true and not providing an argument, you are as dogmatic as Lewis.
