Franciso Lindor just made an error that cost his team 3 runs, he waited by the dugout entrance to say my bad to his teammates coming off the field . Didn’t run into the dugout and slam stuff around like a selfish baby

So if you’re a HS coach.
Why would you be against guys getting some extra reps in a cage in order to get better and help your team as long as it’s outside of your practice times ?
Isn’t the goal to help players help you?
Pitching lessons are a little more tricky as we

I see a lot of “talk” about developing players from Travel Clubs/Organizations with tons of teams and lots of money being collected but none of them document or collect any actionable data on how they are doing it or what the success rates of their players are.
What exactly are

Had a kid tell me yesterday he “choked” after he flied out to CF with a runner on base. Had to explain to him that choking would have been allowing the fear of failure overwhelm him to the point of not putting forth his best effort.

Because of the result? It’s off the plate and down....I will need to check the data but doubt that ball results in HR often

Training swing decisions ✅
1-1 count , don’t be afraid to take a strike if you can’t destroy it.
Pitch 1 = ball (easy)
Pitch 2 = strike (good take)
Pitch 3 = in zone damage done

My wife and I went to a game tonight and watched a guy from our LL/HS who has become a friend and great mentor for my son, start at 2B for the team he grew up rooting for, he made some plays and got a hit! Baseball is amazing. Feeling blessed.

We opened a brand new mat today. I almost wanted to leave it and see if we had hitters who would adjust on their own to getting sawed off all the time. We fixed it instead tho. 🤣

Questions of the Day 🤔
• Are you taking GBs to check a box, or are you fielding w a purpose & taking control of your personal development as an INF?
• How often are you filming? If you film hitting, why not fielding?
• How engaged are your non-throwing reps? 👀⬇️

I love the launch angle guys , the put it in play guys, the pitching guys, the defensive guys, data guys and the old school guys.
I love baseball and what it can teach young men.
I dislike negativity and trying to twist narratives to fit what you are selling.

God gifted me the opportunity to be a father , then he blessed me to be able to become a coach. Nothing has meant more to me than being able to share both of those things with these two incredible men.

Another thing I can do without...
Hitting guru highjacks video off someone’s timeline usually a kid , posts it next to pro guy hitting different pitch height location and clips video to “expose” his terrible swing...yeah that’s cool

@coachFitz17
Are you in season right now coach? Im confused as to what diff it makes that a kid gets an opportunity without your input? This seems a little controlling from the outside. Maybe you have other reasons but seems selfish at first glance

He just got a little over aggressive for sure. He’s an aggressive BR as shown the other day when he ran thru the stop sign and scored. But in this situation he’s gotta chill at second and make sure that ball doesn’t get caught.

Props to this kid! His parents! And others who impacted how he makes decisions!
This high school pitcher held off celebrating with his teammates so he could console his childhood friend instead.

To all my fellow coaches out there.
Don’t forget the impact you have on players will last way longer than you realize and some day they might even do something great in the real world and it will have something to do with you and how you treated them!
Make 2024 the most

Sir I’m not sure how much you are involved in baseball but that was a great swing by a potential MVP would be the exact opposite of putting a ball on a tee in today’s game....when pitchers are living on the fringe of the zone and majority of balls that are crushed are middle up
