Advice for new strategist?

[Potatoes]

Hello, I am the newly appointed strategist for team 5136, the MechaPirates.

2014 was our rookie year, and we did not have a clearly defined "strategist" position. This year, I will be in charge of of the strategy team, running tests to see who makes the best drivers, lead the scouting team at competition, and be the one checking the robot every step of the way to make sure it complies with the rulebook. I've never done any of these jobs before, does anyone have any advice on how to handle the 2015 season?
