Well, that's because much (all? i'm not sure) of sabermetrics is about player evaluation, and that's the GM's job. So sure, while it may be the A's philosophy to take lots of pitches and have great plate discipline, it's largely self-fulfilled, because they go out and get guys who already do that.

Thats not really true, there are sabermetric applications to in-game strategy, stuff like bullpen management, base stealing, sacrifices, stuff like that.
