@xanbarksdale Pardon my misunderstanding, are you saying most catchers you’ve seen are scripted or you prefer your guys to be scripted? Regardless, love the topic!

@troskybaseball Hey man, my room in college was flawless. GPA always above a 3.0. But I couldn’t hit an off-speed pitch to save my life :/

[CU @CatchersU__]

@CoachRix8 IMO pop time is dependent on how deep in your throwing motion you can receive the ball. You can have quick feet but if you catch the ball in a stationary position and then take extra time to get momentum going, neither matter.

Love it. Going to work this into my guys’ routine.

Drill of the Day:

Oldie but 💰
Explosive Medicine Ball Throws

Focus on loading into the back hip and driving forward. Be explosive. Use two-hands. Use a 2/4lb medball. Younger catchers I have them use one of those old big hitting balls that are abit over a 1lb.

Today: Yadi

Yadi always has been one of the best leaders in the game. This is an extremely important trait for catchers at all levels.

How many coaches are utilizing the jump rope for catchers, infielders? 🤔

[CU @CatchersU__]

This is hilarious

College hitter vs. Pro hitter 😂

Today: Salvador Perez

Sal is a big man. One of the things that makes him so good is his ability to manipulate his body. Spec. One knee.

@coach_coxy Wow, nicely done. I probably let that play 15 times. Great job controlling the glove through the ball and presenting for the umpire. One of your students?

[CU @CatchersU__]

@troskybaseball @CoachMongero Coach, how many times have you been told you have a real Matthew McConaughey vibe? 😂

[CU @CatchersU__]

Agreed. “Receiving” and “Presentation” sound nice. Framing has a stigma around it. We simply receive strikes (and borderline pitches) and catch balls.

[Tyler Goodro @goodrocatching]

I hate the word ‘FRAMING’ just as much as I hate the words ‘LAUNCH ANGLE.’

This is receiving [⬇️]. Sounds cleaner.

@dnacatching Absolutely love this! Your son is a stud. Reminds me of one of the 8 y/o I work with. Can’t beat strong hands!

One of the things that makes Buster so good is his ability to work through the ball.

Tomorrow: Salvador Perez
