Couldn’t be more proud of this guy. Last night DJ made his MLB debut tossing 1.1 scoreless against the LA Dodgers!!To all those who were pulling for him along the way, thank you!
If you look up perseverance in the dictionary this mans picture will be next to it. Started at 60 mph. Fought through multiple injuries and more set backs than any player I’ve ever had. He just keeps marching forward. 90 mph turn n burn, 84-85 flat ground.

Paraphrase from Dan John and Pavels book Easy Strength; in the weight room, learn to love what you hate doing. We hate things we are bad at and they are usually our biggest opportunity for performance improvement.
The most prevalent mistake I see guys make is the lack of urgency. Do not overestimate how much time you have or underestimate how much work it actually takes to make real changes
