I was working with one of my players today.

He looked at me and said,

"Coach... I just want to get more hits."

I smiled and said,

"That's not your job."

He looked confused.

I told him,

"Your job is to increase your probability of getting a hit."

That's what hitting really is.

A game of probabilities.

On 0-0, the odds say you're most likely to get a fastball.

So hunt the fastball.

On 2-0...Fastball.
3-0...Fastball.
3-1...Fastball.

You're stacking the odds in your favor.

Now think about why batting averages drop with two strikes.

Because now you have to protect against the fastball...The breaking ball...And the changeup.

The odds become less favorable.

The same principle applies to your swing.

Your job isn't to chase hits.

Your job is to hit the ball hard as often as possible.

Why?

Because hard-hit balls become hits far more often than weakly hit balls.

You're not trying to guarantee a hit.

You're trying to increase the probability of getting one.

The best hitters don't chase results.

They chase probabilities.

They hunt the pitches they're most likely to get.

They hit the ball hard as often as possible.

Over time...

Probability becomes production.

Thank you for reading.

My children are born and raised in Barcelona. We live there. Catalans are light years ahead in football intelligence.

And there is a reason why.

[College Soccer Truth ™ @ImCollegeSoccer]

The world develops their youth talent for free.

America 🇺🇸 develops their youth talent for $15,000 a year.

Development:
-club fees
-uniform fees
-hotels
-flights
-rental cars
-tournaments
-showcases
-private trainers
-closed parks you have to rent $
-outrages travel to call yourself “elite”

But don’t worry because every 4 years when the World Cup comes around, we will say that we’d dominate if we had a stronger youth program.
