I get asked a lot about Tyson’s training. To be honest most of the work he does is on his own.
@troskybaseball
has been a positive influencer on his development. As Nate says “Everyone practices, what are you doing before, after, and between practices?”

Brice Matthews rankings on Perfect Game. Families spend 10’s of thousands of dollars on this stuff and get caught up in the rankings hype. Brice was the 18th pick in this years MLB Draft. Don’t put too much weight in this stuff. Find good competition. Play the game. Repeat.

Vital component of hitting and often lacking. Creating and FEELING a weight shift into the rear hip while slightly coiling/closing front hip. Ride that “pinch/gather” in the rear hip out until the front foot lands. Earlier and slower load. Then Explode! Credit:

When I hear “that coach is too hard on them”.... I think SOFT. Soft parents, soft kid, soft culture. People want to eat sausage, they just never want to know how it’s made. If you want to be truly elite it just simply takes more than most are willing to give. Don’t be soft.

5P Rule: Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance. If you want uncommon results, be willing to give uncommon effort, make uncommon sacrifices, and hold yourself accountable. Blue collar mentality. Your work is NEVER done. What can you do today to prepare for tomorrow?
"People didn't believe me when I told them I practiced harder than I played, but it was true. That's where my comfort zone was created. By the time the game came, all I had to do was react to what my body was already accustomed to doing."

Emotional night. Tyson took off for Goodyear, AZ to sign his contract with the Reds and to begin his professional career. These two boys have spent thousands upon thousands of hours together training and pushing each other. They are each other’s biggest supporter. ❤️💪⚾️

Away, middle, in. Front shoulder. Notice the patch on his front sleeve. It stays closed or “on the ball” until the last second. Allows for a cleaner bat path and better barrel direction. Fight to stay square w the torso as long has possible. Similar to high velo pitchers.

This D1 ⚾️ program got their stadium right! Branded for the University and no other teams (it's HOME). Small enough to provide a fun atmosphere and feel PACKED. Big enough to host (and probably beat) P5 opponents. Turf.....a no-brainer in the midwest. Nicely done Mavericks!

I did this mural this week in my classroom. Students enjoyed coming in while I worked on it over my lunch breaks. I missed painting as an administrator. Crazy how many things I truly enjoy are slowly coming back to me after making a career change 2 years ago!

I do get asked a lot during my lessons what drills my boys do, etc. It isn’t about any one drill or program. It’s about a lifestyle. Hayden has lofty goals and the only way to realize lofty goals is to be ALL IN. The attached list isn’t all inclusive, but it’s a snapshot:

On display here is the increasingly shrinking skill of parenting. If this child was taught right from wrong at home, this wouldn’t happen. People say teachers are overpaid..in repose to that I give you this video. As a former administrator I can attest that this is all 2 common.

Two injuries and a major surgery kept you off the field for all of 2022. You persevered and never lost faith. You deserve this opportunity Tyson! Your work ethic and character will take you so far in life! We look forward to sharing this journey with you! Love ya! -Dad
After a great weekend down in Fayetteville with the Razorback coaching staff, I’d like to announce that I have committed to the University of Arkansas! I would like to thank my family and friends for their unwavering support throughout my entire career. Wooo Pig Sooie! LFG

I use this drill often w my clients. Always give credit to Coach House. Thanks Coach!
Hershiser Drill:
1) Find your ideal set position
2) High leg kick
3) Get your lower half moving freaking fast to home plate
Been doing this drill for a while. First movement to home plate is key!

I’ve been trying to get our team to understand what it takes to get recruited. It has nothing to do with how many hits u had or how u pitched. It’s all about this👇. This👇 and training for 3 hours every single day, eating right, lifting, studying, and getting to bed early.

My boys are on year three of using Driveline. My entire 13U team all has their own set of DL balls and we never touch a baseball w/out going thru our warmup first. Do your own research! Driveline is all about player development and transparency is the norm.

When kids get recruited early they get fed (praise and ego). Sometimes they lose the hunger to improve. There are a lot of kids out there who haven’t been fed and they remain hungry. They continue to develop & can often times end up the better prospect. It’s always time to EAT!

So many questioned our move to Millard West in ‘22. Even more said he’d never be able to play Class A ball, especially at MW. We’re incredibly grateful for the past two years. Ignore the haters and frauds. Always bet on yourself kids and keep your inner-circle tight. Go Cats!!

Ty participated in a Pro Day down in KC today. Back is feeling good, so why not accept the invite!? Not recruited as a pitcher by any stretch, but hopped on the mound for a few pitches today after hitting. With some dedicated time, he may find that he enjoys the mound👍

Personally I feel eligibility must end before a player turns 24. After that they are taking away opportunities from kids. At 24 you should either be in pro ball, at a job our finishing a masters degree. Not taking away opportunities from HS kids. Rule needs some safeguards.

I was asked by a good friend who has trained Ty since he was 11 to give him a “committed” pic to go along w Ty’s testimonial. We finally got a pic of him in a uniform after an 18 month injury layoff. It’s been 24 months since he’s put on a spring uni. So here you go Nate👊 WPS!

This is a very powerful image for me. Tyson made a decision at age 10 that he wanted to play professional baseball. A spark was lit in 2016 at a Trosky camp in Iowa City. Thanks Nate for your passion for the game and for sharing your gift as a master teacher!

There is a reason my teams sprint to their positions at all times, tuck in their shirts and wear sleeves to practice. Looking the part is easy and it’s half the battle if you want to play at the next level. Why would you want to make a sloppy first impression?

Does a seven year old really “need hitting lessons?” I think not. Parents if you turn practice into a job at a young age your child will never develop the intrinsic motivation needed to become the player you envision them to be. Love of game first. Then targeted development.

If you play 2-3 sports and want to play college baseball you better find time to throw 5-6x per week during December-February. Position guys need to hit all offseason. We are seeing way too many kids having arm issues after two weeks of practice. Kids aren't in bsbl shape.

Players need to understand if a college coach is there to watch you, he already knows you have some physical tools. The intangibles are often the separator. Prepare and act like a 5 Star at all times, you never know who is watching. HS Coaches this is also on you.

If you take a 30 min hitting lesson and the instructor talks for 15+ min....find another instructor. Keep it simple. Let kids find their own best swing. Make simple adjustments and master the basics. I witnessed an absolutely brutal lesson recently that made this post happen.

Nothing says “Baseball” like relentless 20-40 mph winds and constant temps in the low 40’s and high 30’s. Mother Nature is cruel. Of course it’s 75-85 degrees on dates we don’t have any games scheduled (Fri-Mon). Brutal.

Strongly disagree. At some point there needs to be a level of accountability. We have to expect & demand more of our students. In the real world there will be deadlines. Your employer isn’t going to care if the report is accurate if it’s late.“Study skills” do matter. Be on time.
