I would say the most useful idea GMs such as those two have brought to the forefront isn't really a sabermetric thing, but is probably worth mentioning. That is the targeting of qualities that are being undervalued by the rest of the market and stocking up on it. You can then use your surplus in that area to trade for those overvalued areas in which you have come up short.
