    WHERE GREAT MAJOR LEAGUE TEAMS

    FIND HEALTH

  • Our Story

    In early 2010, Classic co-founders Michael and Spencer Witte set out for the Cactus and Grapefruit Leagues with a big claim: they had a system that could project for pitcher injury risk.

     

    Their experience? They had some, but not a lot. Mike developed a preliminary methodology that proved successful for the St. Louis Cardinals over the previous five years. Spencer played Division I ball but became interested in international affairs and left the sport entirely to live abroad and get a grad degree from Oxford.

     

    And their data? They didn't really have any.

     

    In that first year, two teams overlooked the unlikely resumes and the absence of numbers and took a chance on a very intriguing idea.

     

    Flash forward to the present. Classic's system is fully backed by data on thousands of pitchers. We've worked with at least two teams in every division and have client relationships that span over a decade.

     

    Division and World Series champions have relied on Classic. Through hard work, professionalism and attention to detail, we've discretely become a secret pitching acquisition and development edge for 66% of teams in the game.

  • Don't take our word for it. Here's what some very important people around the game have had to say about us:

     

     

     

     

    "The best baseball decision we've made in four years," -AL Baseball Ops Executive

     

     

     

    "We could not be happier with your work. Honestly, it's invaluable," -NL Scouting Executive

     

     

     

    "As you know, what you guys do is such an important part of our process" -AL Scouting Executive

     

     

     

    "Going with you was a total no-brainer for us this offseason." -AL Baseball Ops Analyst

     

     

     

    "Your stuff is all over our war room. It helps me sleep at night," -NL Scouting Executive
