Basic Premises of the Committee
  • Special Projects are optional for the Origins Committee. SABR does not require its research committees to undertake projects. However, when a project is approved, it should operate in reference to a simple but practical plan that lays out next steps and a completion schedule for them.
  • Projects undertaken by the Committee are intended to supplement and enhance the work of origins researchers, and not to compete with the work or active plans of those researchers.
  • The Committee will undertake new projects only when it is clear that there are adequate commitments of time and energy to the project. If such commitments later dissipate, the default action is to suspend the project until new commitments can be arranged.
  • We need to maintain and foster the current easy and comfortable relationship with the SABR 19th Century Committee, with which we share interest in several years of baseball history. It is highly desirable to re-kindle the energies of the SABR-UK Chapter, which conducted spirited origins research in the 1990s and is ideally situated to pursue predecessor games in the British Isles. A committee of two [McCray and Block] will work with SABR-UK leadership and members to facilitate this.
