It's definitely an economics-first book with neat examples from MLB history. He's a great writer and it's written assuming you know some stuff about baseball.
I also really liked "Scorecasting" which is sort of a "Freakonomics of sports" type book. There are a few chapters related to baseball, but the whole book is a good read.
I see "The Inside Game" on your reading list. As a big baseball fan, is it worth the read?
