    The hurt talker

    Before joining the Dodgers in 2006, Conte fielded many similar predawn queries from GM Brian Sabean during Conte's seven seasons as the Giants' head athletic trainer. In Conte's mind, answering these questions is equivalent to asking a manager to guarantee his centerfielder will hit 35 home runs next season. Short of sorcery, there's just no way to know. Yet that hasn't stopped Conte from attempting to build a crystal ball anyway. "In a post- Moneyball world," he says, "injury risk assessment is the final frontier."

    On this frontier, Conte is attempting to discover in advance who will get hurt and who won't -- or at least give accurate odds. With enough well-analyzed data from the past to inform roster decisions in the present, he believes, it's not outside the realm of possibility to assemble a team that goes an entire season without losing a day to the disabled list. For 15 years, he has tirelessly beaten on his computer, scouring rotisserie and news websites for such data. He does this even though he knows he may never be able to gather enough information to create a provable methodology, must be secretive about his occasional victories and is often powerless to control the roster, especially now that his bankrupt, ownerless team has no choice but to take risks on cheaper players. Since 2007, Dodgers players have spent the sixth-most days on the disabled list in the majors. No wonder Conte says, "Traditional baseball types tell me to just give up, that this is a waste of time because injuries are mostly bad luck." To which he has a retort: "Twenty-five years ago no one listened to Bill James either."
