Please hug your Mom and tell her you love her as much as you can, I lost mine on Sunday; my only wish is that I had more time with her. You were and will always be my inspiration, you are the reason I’m in baseball. Please pray for my Dad, he’s lost right now. May you rest in

Over the last 3 weeks, I have gotten to see a lot of select baseball, HS and college baseball. The amount of hitters that consistently get themselves out is astonishing to me. There is plenty of data that says that the older you get the harder it is for this to change.

I wanted to post these in hopes someone gives this guy a good look, 95-98FB and a CH with plenty of depth. His name is Nico O’Donnell, ex University of Texas. He’s looking for pro opportunities. Please repost and let’s help him get a chance, more data available upon request.

Hitters, ask yourself these 3 questions after every game instead of worrying about stats:
1. Did I swing at the right pitch?
2. Did I hit the ball hard?
3. Did I hit the ball in the air (line drives)?
I guaranteed you if you just focus on this, your stats will be there 👊🏾

To all players in the San Antonio & surrounding areas:
I will open 10 spots for the next hitting program coming up this Fall. Grateful to say over 90% of the players that have gone through the program will move on to play college baseball.
If you’re interested, my DMs are open.

Open Angle bullets - great way to challenge your hitters movements. 33-34mph @ 20ft, reaction time is about 92mph.
Just like anything else, too much of it could creat bad habits. What are we working on?

Update on this:
The person went out of his way to find me after the flight, I said well, is it flat?
His response “I gather a lot of evidence and I’ll be revealing all of it soon, the world will be shocked”

Sliders Fridays…pulling the sliders for damage, if you miss you’ll stay in the middle or hook them down the line for doubles 😉. Stop trying to hit them the other way.
