But far from becoming obsolete in this environment - as Michael Lewis' Moneyball once forecast - the role of the scout in today's game has evolved and even expanded. Rather than being the antithesis of a data-driven approach, scouting now represents an essential analytical component in a team's arsenal. Future Value is a thorough dive into the world of the contemporary scout - a world with its own language, methods, metrics, and madness.

As a law intern, I swore I'd play by the rules. Then Brandon Wilson walked in—six-foot-something of grumpy, brooding baseball royalty… and zero patience for anyone who challenges him. He’s cocky. Infuriating. Sexy as sin. And when he finds out I don’t recognize his famous face? Let’s just say… he takes it personally. One scandal later, I’m tangled in a high-profile lawsuit against his corrupt former agent. And suddenly, I’m spending late nights with Brandon, trading legal briefs and smoldering glances. Our chemistry? Combusting. The tension? Deliciously dangerous. And when ...

The Christian life is not a sprint; it is a course laid out by the Master, filled with fairways of blessing, rough patches of trial, and hazards that test the depth of our trust.

Yeager draws a profound connection between the game of golf and the believer’s daily walk with Christ. Each drive down the fairway reminds us to press toward the mark. Each bunker illustrates the pitfalls of temptation. Each green teaches us ...

One closet. One night. Now I’m risking my badge—and maybe my heart—for a woman I barely know. I didn’t know her name when we got shoved into that closet. Just that she was curvy, gorgeous, and clutching my arm like she trusted me. We were hiding. Breathing each other in. Adrenaline made everything feel sharp. Urgent. Inevitable. We left that closet and fell into bed like gravity made the decision for us. One night. No names. No reason to ever see her again. But fate has other plans. Because she’s somehow tied to the symbol in my missing person case. And I’m forced to keep her ...
