@michael_schlact I played JV as JR in HS. 17yo HS grad. JUCO was the best decision of my life. Starting SS in Omaha 5 years later. Played pro ball for 11 years. Area Scout for 7. If you love the game it doesn't matter the level. Keep your head down and continue to work to get better.

@JaredDWilson @SoCalBirds @RepettiCameron @12sixacademy I coached Sean in 13/14U when he was younger. Always been a strike thrower. Always had feel to spin it and change the shape of his breaking ball. He's developing at his own pace. The pitchability is definitely fun to watch once he gets it going.

@sean0murphy @shegone03 @AROD JD was a .326 hitter in the Minor Leagues. He could already hit. Small adjustments to elevate the ball changed his MLB career. Teaching kids the part to elevate the ball without them actually learning how to hit/barrel the ball is one of the biggest mistakes in youth instruction.

From showing out at #PBFG23 to an eye-opening showing at #Super60, OF William Patrick knows how to make a statement. Physical 6-foot-2, 200-pound frame w/ huge tools for the @LSUbaseball commit. 60: 6.29x2 (Super 60 record, 1.51 split, 22.2mph top speed 💨) Max EV: 100.7 Max Distance: 394ft. @PrepBaseballLA

Wow! I didn't know that they used analytics back in 1981. I bet his out pitch was a sweeper or maybe a breaking ball with gyro spin.

@JoeDoyleMiLB It's funny to me to see guys evaluate tools and have 60's across the board, Including OFP. And then put a 7th round grade on him. Like 60's grow on trees. Not many Jarren Duran's floating around in the 7th round. 🤦🏻♂️

This is the game of baseball that I fell in love with as a kid. It policed itself. Nothing dirty. Just playing hard within the rules of the game. Sad, we don't get to see this type of baseball anymore. If you had a different uniform on, you were the enemy for 9 innings.
Happy birthday to 1990 World Series champion and Nasty Boy, Norm Charlton!

I recently read about man who collects pictures of hitters who had hit walk-off home runs. He said that the reason he did this is because this is how he views us entering heaven. Look at the faces of his teammates waiting to welcome him home. Look at their excitement. They can’t wait to celebrate with him. Look at the fans. Arms raised, big smiles, maybe even hugs for a perfect stranger. Perhaps this is your first holiday season without someone important who is now waiting for you in heaven. Maybe it’s just another one with that big hole in your heart and an empty seat at the table. Either way, I hope you can find encouragement in this picture, what it represented to the man who collected it, and find joy this year. #heaven #hope #joy #grief

But you can see that the people running this have ZERO care for the arm health of these poor kids. If they did they would not let them touch a plyo ball before the proper technique is established, let alone post about it. 🤷

Every one of these kids are doing something totally different. It obviously wasn't taught correctly at the beginning and the willingness to video/post it shows that the people in charge are clueless about arm care

I drafted Lyle out of HS. First ever Taiwanese born player drafted in MLB. Had him on the Mariners scout team so I got to know him really well. Chose ASU where he rarely got to catch, which I thought would be his path to the big leagues. Glad to see he is still having success.
