www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Friday, October 4, 2013 | 28 Statistics don't tell whole story at lower levels, scout says continued from p.27 2007. He was hired by the A's the following year. The Oakland organization is known for being one of the rst to rely on sabermetrics -- statistical analysis that extends beyond simple batting average and runs batted in -- as a way to determine players' abilities and values. But Higginson said he judges players by what he sees more than by what he reads on the stats page. "Statistics do tell you a lot... but obviously things like (character) and tools are things you still need to have to play at the major league level," he said. "Most high school players are going to hit .400 or .500. The level of competition they're playing against isn't really challenging them yet... Stats are a bit more of a factor with a college player." The job isn't as glamorous as it may sound, Higginson added. It's a lot of driving, a lot of living out of a suitcase, a lot of time away from his wife and two children. "The most enjoyable part is the game itself," said Higginson, who intends to watch the MLB playoffs at his Burlington home. "The hardest part is all the other stuff that goes on in getting (to the park)."
