LOS ANGELES -- Gabe Kapler seemed to have a pretty good thing going.He lives in a beautiful Malibu canyon. Over a 12-season major-league career, he made more than $9 million, so the need to drive to an office every day probably wasn't a pressing one. He stayed in the game by doing studio work for Fox baseball broadcasts. On air, he touted advanced analytics, a taste he had picked up while playing under, and befriending, Andrew Friedman in Tampa Bay.
