If it were named anything else besides "moneyball," the take about it glorifying underpaying players wouldn't exist.
I'm not old enough to remember a pre-moneyball world, but MLB has been mitigating the effects of the “three true outcomes” problem quite well over the last few years. The pitch clock is the best thing to happen to baseball since integration.
