The right place for development may not be the place that offers you the most scholarship or NIL money.
They may not have the best facilities or uniforms.
They may not have the glitz and the glamour.
But.
They may give you the best opportunity to develop into the player you can be.

I've played professional baseball.
I've coached collegiate baseball.
I've evaluated thousands of high school players over the last 12 years.
Here are a few baseball truths I've learned:
• Failure is inevitable. How you respond to it is a choice.
• The game rewards resilience far more than talent gives it credit for.
• Body language is visibly LOUD.
• You never know who's watching.
• Talent gets you noticed. Consistency gets you recruited.
• Nobody cares how good you were last week.
• The players who blame others rarely improve.
• Confidence comes from preparation, not motivation.
• The game owes you nothing.
• Coaches trust competitors before they trust tools.
• Your teammates know if you're real.
• Baseball has a funny way of exposing excuses.
• The best players are usually obsessed with improvement, not attention.
• Nobody remembers your excuses. They remember your actions.
Build your floor. Chase your ceiling. ⚾️

Today's 98 mph is the equivalent of the Jugs gun 94 and the Ray gun 90.
Don't be fooled by all these new wave velocity numbers.
Velocity numbers are now comical.
The overwhelming majority of college hitters don't have the bat speed to hit real 95+.
The overwhelming majority of high school hitters don't have the bat speed to hit real 90+.

Tom Brady explains his mental edge and why practice (not gameday) creates separation.
"There was a part of me that was a psychopath out there. I was extremely hypercompetitive every day. I didn't feel like let's get to Sunday and now it's the time...Every day is the time to give your best, even in practice."
Every day your standards are either reinforced or lowered by how you treat practice.
You don’t flip a switch into excellence. You rehearse it daily.

Ding… 🛎️ Ding 🛎️ Ding 🛎️ !!!
The Tigers struck out the least as a team in June (of all season) and they had the best offense in baseball that month.
** So nice to see a MLB Team finally Make that significant connection! See video…
Striking out hurts your offense and loses games… I’ll stand on that mountain forever. Got to put the ball in play with 2 strikes. Hard preferably, yea of course, but even softer hit contact and miss hits find holes and can be tough plays for D. But Hard “right turns” and “left turns” with a K don’t do that. No pressure put on opponents.
Develop a solid 2 strike approach and fight tooth and nail to survive! Move the lineup, pass it down. Frustrate the pitcher and defense. Run up pitch counts of opponents starters. Put up crooked numbers in multiple innings. All of it… why? Because it wins.
And it’s beautiful baseball to watch!

Can we all just agree that if you’re playing college baseball at ANY level, you’re a pretty good player. It’s so hard to actually play college baseball in today’s world.

The first things scouts and recruiters look at?
Bodies.
Your body advertises if you're a JYD in the weight room or lazy.
Your body is your billboard.
What does it say about you?

Last out of the Pirates 2-1 loss last night. Oneil Cruz is doubled on a LD to SS. This happens way too frequently. Why?
1) Most often the cue to the base runner is “freeze” on a line drive verses “go BACK on a line drive.”
2) Not enough live game speed reads during BP.

I’m really disappointed in Lloyd Acosta. He has manipulated his way thru that program with many coaches. You think he would have learned after what happened at UC Davis. Lloyd I’m extremely disappointed in you. Your lacking Character and integrity. You’re the problem Lloyd.

I’m getting a ton of calls from players and parents about transferring. “We want this and we want that….” I respect and hear you but the ruthless game of baseball has never cared about our “wants.” It requires and it needs specifics from you. The system of college baseball and sports right now is cut throat!! Go where you are wanted. Go where there is an opportunity for you to compete for more opportunities. Simple, not easy. It’s cut throat. It’s uncomfortable, intimidating, frustrating, scary for some,… doubtful for some,… it’s chaotic at the least. For some, it’s not your first rodeo and for others, strap in! Coaches are looking for EXPERIENCE, consistency, physicality, focused players who will compete! This isn’t a time to be picky.

‘25 OF/LHP Jack Fowler (Pepperdine) of @falcon_hardball
Gets Foothill on the board early. Pulls hands in and smokes a 3-1 FB to RF for a solo shot to lead off the game.
