In the context of "Moneyball," a "five-tool guy" refers to a Baseball player who excels in five key skills: hitting for average, hitting for power, base running, fielding, and throwing. These players are often highly sought after for their versatility and ability to contribute in multiple aspects of the game. However, "Moneyball" emphasizes the importance of on-base percentage and other metrics over traditional scouting, suggesting that teams can find value in players who may not fit the classic five-tool mold but still provide significant contributions.
