That’s a flaw but you couldn’t talk about all 25 of the A’s. Did you ever read the book? Dry as a fart. I still can’t believe that an entertaining movie could have been made from Moneyball. I would have thought a HS yearbook would have been better material I haven't read the book, but I imagine there is at least a passing mention of Miguel Tejada. The movie doesn't need bottle scenes about all 25 guys on the team, but they don't even acknowledge the existence of any of the 10 best players. It's just weird. "Passing mention" might be generous. The book dwells on players brought in by Billy Beane. Tejada, Eric Chavez, Tim Hudson, not drafted by Beane. The central player that the book dwells on, fat catcher Jeremy Brown. They did shoehorn him in of course, the clip from Visalia that Jonah Hill shows Beane at the end.
