Who I Am
Who I Am
My name is Tyler Janak, and I am a senior at Baldwin Wallace University, where I am majoring in Data Analytics and playing for the university’s baseball team. I have recently been interested in sports analytics, especially in baseball, and I set a goal to apply data to make more informed decisions, to facilitate player development, as well as to enhance the overall performance of the team. Leveraging both my firsthand experience as a player and my analytical skills, I bridge the gap between on-field performance and data-driven insights.
What I’m Looking For
What I’m Looking For
At the moment, I am looking for internships or full-time opportunities in sports analytics or in research and development, and data-driven roles in professional baseball or any other sectors that are using analytics for enhancing performance and strategy. My dream is to be part of baseball-related data-driven decision-making by working with front offices, the player development departments, or the research teams who analyze trends, predict outcomes, and optimize strategies.
A perfect internship would allow me to apply statistical analysis and data visualization using SQL, Python, and R programming to solve complex problems and generate meaningful insights. Whether it is working with player performance data, scouting reports, or advanced metrics, I am looking forward to adding value to a team that is at the forefront of innovation and analytics.
What I’ve Done to Prepare
What I’ve Done to Prepare
Studying data analytics has been insightful because it enabled me to grasp probability and statistics, SQL data systems, R programming, and Python. I have been able to utilize various projects to apply these skills to the data, having real-life situations as examples, such as the following:
2024 MLB Division Series Insights – Critical examination of the statistical lineup of the playoff teams and the classification of success factors of the teams were the main objectives (metrics).
Japanese Baseball to MLB Forecasting – An exploration into japanese baseball and modeling to predict which players that are playing in the NPB will come to the MLB
Bristol Blues Data Analytics Internship (2025) – Scouted opposing players and delivered data-driven reports to coaches, developed statistical and predictive models in R, and built an interactive Shiny dashboard, contributing to a 27–17 season record.
Outside of coursework, I attended the SABR Analytics Conference, where I engaged with industry professionals and gained deeper insights into baseball analytics. I can proudly say that I am experienced in R, Python, SQL, and Tableau, which gives me the ability to manipulate and visualize data clearly and effectively.
Looking Ahead
Looking Ahead
I am very excited about engaging with a professional sports organization to utilize my data analytics skills and thereby benefit a company that values data-driven decision-making. My target is to be involved in baseball operations, performance analysis, and player development, processes where data plays a major role in strategy, scouting, and player evaluations. The internship or job will give me the opportunity to work with real-world MLB data, which in turn will help me analyze complex datasets not only in theory but in practice as well.
I encourage you to read my resume and connect with me on LinkedIn.
