Help me understand statistical in game managing...

how does a manager utilize statistics on in game decisions? Is it just a glorified version of Righty/Lefty match-ups? Is it more for offensive purposes than defensive purposes? How does a "new age" manager manage differently than a "gut feel" manager? are these questions even making sense?
