Tableau_Basebal I used the baseball data set and mutated it somewhat. In particular I added the variable BMI ( Body Mass Index) Here is the link to the modified data set: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pjq5Fw7oHFffxmxW0jgWIIxsBPYUvmRx-eZcoouEk-k/edit?ts=5b61da10#gid=0

SUMMARY I investigated whether there was a strong a connection between the baseball players physical characteristics and their performance.
DESIGN I wrestled with how to examine the uniquness of each player???s height and weight while at the same time not wanting the reader needing to scroll.There were almost 900 observations.
I was working with 4 variables. I assigned each a color and used them throughtout the workbook.
Feedback: In general the feedback was that the graphs were too big for the window, one had to scroll . And that the Story was monotonous: bar graph after bar graph. This is why I kept at it until I came up with #3 which had a variety of graphs and moved towards not needing to scroll by the end.
