Resumo(s)

As the world of sports expands to never seen levels, so does the necessity for tools that provided material advantages for organizations and stakeholders. The objective of this project is to develop a predictive model capable of predicting the odds a baseball player has to achieve a base hit on a given day. After that, using this information to both have a fair shot at winning the game Beat the Streak and providing valuable insights to the coaching staff. This project builds upon the work developed previously in Alceo and Henriques (2019), adding a full season of data, emphasizing new strategies, and displaying more data visualization content. The results achieved on the new season are aligned with the previous work where the best model, a Multi-layer Perceptron, developed in Python achieved an 81% correct pick ratio.
