Will this book be released in audio format soon? Thanks!
No audiobook per se. But the Kindle version does have a text-to-talk feature:
The Extra 2%: How Wall Street Strategies Took a Major League Baseball Team from Worst to First First
Enjoy!
Thanks for the information. That’s too bad. I listen to books on my daily commute and was quite interested in it.
Finished your book over the weekend. I really enjoyed it and keep up the good work, can’t wait to read whatever you decide to tackle next. Also, seems like Chuck LaMar is a real stand-up guy to grant you access and time even though he had to know that he wouldn’t be painted in the nicest way. It’s a shame that Naimoli wasn’t more directly involved, but for you safety, maybe it was a good thing. Thanks again.
Great book but there’s a nit-picking mistake. Bob Brenly wasn’t the Diamondbacks manager who intentionally walked Barry Bonds with the bases loaded; it was Buck Showalter.
I watched that unfold on TV that day, May 28, 1998, and it blew me away.

Thanks. We’re keeping a running tally of errors to fix for paperback edition — there’s a handful, I’ll add this one.
Jonah, when is the paperback edition coming out?
Likely no paperback. Paperbacks are typically meant to offer a lower price point than hardbacks, given how expensive buying hardcover can be in the old system. But with Amazon making hardcovers so much cheaper, and eBooks (Kindle et al) also offering a cheap option, not as necessary.
