Title: Manager, International Baseball Strategy and Information
Department: Baseball Strategy & Information
Status: Full-Time/Non-Union
Pay Rate: $120,000 – $135,000
FLSA: Exempt
Reports to: Director, Baseball Strategy and Information/Vice President, Player Personnel
Location: Los Angeles, California
Posting Date: September 15, 2026

Job Summary
The Baseball Strategy and Information team of the Los Angeles Dodgers is responsible for supporting Major League Coaches, Baseball Operations Leadership, and multiple other key stakeholders with data and information needed for strategic decision making.

As a Manager, you will take on a brand-new role focused on advancing the statistical rigor and tooling we bring to International Scouting. The ideal candidate will have some experience working with multi-source data, will help us evaluate what priorities should be and what to build next, and will work collaboratively across departments to create tools and reports.

Essential Duties/Responsibilities:

Data Foundation

• Take ownership of understanding what international scouting data we have — across every vendor, internal system, and tool — and determine what’s trustworthy, what’s missing, and what’s not being used
• Establish what “data quality” should mean for this function and build the validation processes to get us there, leveraging existing tools when appropriate.
• Identify and propose new data sources (vendors, scraping, or otherwise) where you see gaps worth closing

Analytical Tools

• Build tools that let scouts, coordinators, and analysts explore historical trends by combinations of country, league, position, age, and signing bonus
• Make this self-serve for non-technical stakeholders, not locked in a notebook only you can run
• Use your own judgment on where analytical effort is best spent, and bring recommendations rather than waiting to be assigned a specific question

Valuation & Projection

• Once the data foundation is solid, lead or significantly contribute to building broader valuation and projection models for international players. This includes but isn’t limited to advancing our understanding league translations, bonus pool allocation strategies, and leveraging biomechanical data into our evaluations and projections.

Day-to-Day

• Write code daily — SQL for data work, Python/R for analysis, some blend of manual coding and AI-assisted development
• Work closely with international scouts, analysts, and data engineering/IT
• Translate ambiguous baseball questions (“what’s the track record of X archetype”) into data pipelines and analysis
• Present findings to non-technical stakeholders (scouts, coordinators) in usable form

Basic Requirements/Qualifications:

Education

• B.A. or B.S. in mathematics, economics, statistics, computer science, data science, operations research, or a related quantitative-field.

Work Experience

• 3-5+ years of experience working with messy, multi-source data — sports/scouting data experience is a plus but not required if the underlying skill set transfers
• Strong track record of writing production-quality SQL and Python or R; real experience with data pipelines or ETL
• Experience distilling complex analyses into compelling, executive-level narratives and visualizations
• A demonstrated history of identifying problems and proposing solutions without being asked — this role rewards initiative, not just execution
• A solid understanding of baseball and international markets — you don’t need scouting/evaluation ability, but you should have some knowledge of signing dynamics and the leagues/markets involved
• A. or B.S. in mathematics, economics, statistics, computer science, data science, operations research, or a related quantitative-field.
• Able to communicate technical findings and recommendations to non-technical baseball people
• Ability to spend extended time in Los Angeles for onboarding, if not able to relocate
• Ability to work a varied schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
• Nice to have: fluency in Spanish or Japanese; prior work with geographically distributed / multi-source data; experience with cloud data infra (AWS S3/RDS/Lambda) or BI/dashboard tools.

Job Summary
The Baseball Strategy and Information team of the Los Angeles Dodgers is responsible for supporting Major League Coaches, Baseball Operations Leadership, and multiple other key stakeholders with data and information needed for strategic decision making.

As an Analyst, you will take on a brand-new role focused on advancing the statistical rigor we bring to international scouting. This is an early-career role for someone who can help us audit, consolidate, and validate data, and can help build real infrastructure, not just run existing reports. The best candidates will be able to bring expertise that allows them to contribute across Baseball Operations.

Essential Duties/Responsibilities:

Phase 1: Data Audit & Quality

• Inventory every international scouting data source we currently purchase or have access to verify what’s being ingested, where it lives, whether it’s accurate, and how it’s being used
• Build data quality and validation checks so we have confidence in what we’re looking at, and leverage existing internal tools for this.
• Identify gaps — data we don’t have but should, including evaluating new vendors or scraping/collecting publicly available sources

Phase 2: Exploratory Tools

• Build tools that let scouts, coordinators, and analysts explore historical trends by combinations of country, league, position, age, and signing bonus
• Make this data self-serve for non-technical stakeholders, not locked in a notebook only you can run

Phase 3: Valuation & Projection

• Once the underlying data is trustworthy and well-understood, contribute to building broader valuation and projection models for international players. This includes but isn’t limited to advancing our understanding league translations, bonus pool allocation strategies, and leveraging biomechanical data into our evaluations and projections.

Day-to-Day

• Write code daily — SQL for data work, Python/R for analysis, some blend of manual coding and AI-assisted development
• Work closely with international scouts, analysts, and data engineering/IT
• Translate ambiguous baseball questions (“what’s the track record of X archetype”) into data pipelines and analysis
• Present findings to non-technical stakeholders (scouts, coordinators) in usable form

Supervisory Responsibilities

• This role will have no supervisory responsibilities

Education

• B.A. or B.S. in mathematics, economics, statistics, computer science, data science, operations research, or a related quantitative-field.

Work Experience

• 0-3 years of experience with strong quantitative/statistics/data science training

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

• Comfortable writing production-quality SQL and Python or R; experience with data pipelines, ETL, or dbt-style workflows a strong plus
• Genuine interest in baseball and international markets — you don’t need scouting/evaluation ability, but you should understand signing dynamics, international free agency rules, and the leagues/markets involved
• Comfortable with ambiguity — this role starts with “we don’t fully know what we have,” not a clean spec
• Able to communicate technical findings and recommendations to non-technical baseball people
• Ability to relocate to Los Angeles and commute to Dodger Stadium
• Ability to work a varied schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays.
• Nice to have: fluency in Spanish or Japanese; prior work with geographically distributed / multi-source data; experience with cloud data infra (AWS S3/RDS/Lambda) or BI/dashboard tools.

A couple of months ago, I wrote about Yordan Alvarez’s Triple Crown chances. Time hasn’t been cruel in this case, and his Triple Crown bid looks even stronger now than it did then. Since I’ve gotten several requests for updates, it made sense to do a quick InstaGraphs post on the Triple Crown race probabilities. There’s a slight change for the probability charts you’ll see below. In order to make the percentages in the individual statistic tables add up to a clean 100%, I did not allow for ZiPS to include ties atop its simulated leaderboards when I ran the projections for that June 8 piece. In the latest run, I’ve factored in ties and expressed them in the tables as multiple players winning.

Back in June, Alvarez was second in the American League in batting average, looking up at Rays DH Yandy Díaz. Díaz continued to hit in June, but a .213 July knocked him out of the top spot, and he’s now 24 points behind Alvarez. Most of the other batting title contenders from June have also seen their averages decline, while Alvarez’s mark has actually increased, going from .316 to .322 entering play Monday. Rays outfielder Chandler Simpson has snuck into the second spot, with Díaz down to third and 22 points of average below the Astros slugger. Both Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. (.284) and Tigers rookie infielder Kevin McGonigle (.286) are very dangerous hitters and could go on a heater at any moment to make things interesting, but Alvarez leads them by over 30 points right now, and at this point in the season, it’s unlikely that they will catch him. Alvarez has also hit the required minimum number of plate appearances to qualify for the batting title, so no hitless at-bats would need to be added to get him to the 502-PA threshold, meaning a season-ending injury would freeze him at .322.

Alvarez (86) holds the RBI lead by six, so a first-place finish here isn’t guaranteed, but it still leaves him in an incredibly strong position. Ben Rice is 11 behind now, in part because the Yankees have put fewer men on base in front of him these last few months without three-time MVP Aaron Judge in their lineup. Meanwhile, reigning AL Rookie of the Year winner Nick Kurtz, who is currently on the IL with a strained right thumb, has fallen to 17 off the lead. A good chunk of the remaining risk to Alvarez’s RBI crown chances comes from a potential injury; even a minimum IL visit for him could leave Orioles first baseman Pete Alonso (75) or Tigers catcher Dillon Dingler (80) with room to swoop in.

The home run title is basically a three-player race at this point between Alvarez (35), Caminero (33), and Rice (32). Of the other four players in the top five as of June, three missed serious time due to injury and fell out of contention: Munetaka Murakami (26), Byron Buxton (25), and Judge (17). With Caminero and Rice hot on Alvarez’s heels, this category is going to be the most difficult one for him to win.

Alvarez’s Triple Crown probability is nearly the same as his odds to lead the league in home runs at this point; if he takes the home run crown, he almost certainly will have played well enough to hang onto the RBI lead and secure the batting title, too. ZiPS projects Alvarez now as having nearly two-in-three odds (66.5%) to win the AL Triple Crown.
