Coach Johnson

Just a Mets fan with a little league team that has never lost #noexcuses

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@Senger15 was at your game in Syracuse the other day. I have a thought you should consider. I think you need to use a traditional catcher’s setup. Being on your knee is lazy and doesn’t give you a chance to block the ball. I remember @nickscards22 being athletic by not doing this

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@Too_Manny @loscortes_14 hey guys I saw y’all are playing tonight! I can’t wait to watch! Bring me back a shirt if you can!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Helping minor leaguers reach their fullest potential through tips and experiences I learned when I played baseball. Also being the best little league coach east of the Mississippi

[apple @yvestiddies]

what do you guys think you're known for on twitter

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Will you talk to my little league team next spring training?

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

I would really like an answer from @FrigginConner. I saw you throw 24 changeups in a game as a relief pitcher. I tell my little league pitchers about it every year

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

What ever happened to the changeup? Most underrated pitch in baseball. It’s the first pitch I teach to my little league players. And it’ll be the last pitch they throw before they leave the pen/game. What do you think @brtiberi @thomasmac_5 @FrigginConner

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@Senger15 Fires me up! Hopefully I get to see you in spring training too! That would really fire me up!!!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Wow!!! Something in that St. Lucie water!!!

[Push Performance @PUSHbsbl]

10lbs gained, 5mph gained. @AliMarcel2 is going to be an elite MLB arm.

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Also guess what day it is! It’s @AliMarcel2 bump day! Time to check into twitter for the next 5 hours to see videos of him throwing HEAT! But more importantly command which I think can be accomplished by focusing on throwing strikes and not as hard as he can

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@brtiberi hey man just checking in on you! Have you learned to swing down on the ball yet?

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

What a tandum! @Senger15 is a gem for the Mets and I can’t wait to meet him! Heard nothing but good things about this prospect!

This is artwork from both Spears and Senger.

Not much better than a solid side bullpen painting spots with full arsenal and a catcher making it look real pretty.

@thomasmac_5 @slimstevie @leftybtaylor One of my favorite St. Lucie Mets! Let’s go @leftybtaylor!!!!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@FrigginConner I’ve had the pleasure of meeting this young man and I can say that it was all business with him. He wasn’t very funny but I get it! If I had any advice for him it would probably be to lighten up and enjoy life right now

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

If you don’t think you can add another 7 mph to your fastball in ten weeks then you’re just weak minded. I could care less about an in-and-out I want results. WINNING is all that matters. Not building spaceships

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@lucrennie20 wow!!!! Would love for you to come speak to my 12u team when you get a chance! Especially the pitchers and how to maximize their force with their legs! We have 5am weights if you’d like to join and talk then!

[Prospect Performance Academy @PPA_Ohio]

Again, optimize your low intent patterns, and you will learn how to be efficient at full effort. @lucrennie20 here (AAA NYM) making big gains right now as he pushes towards the major league level. Smooth usually beats blind intent.

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Hey @petecrowarm can’t wait to see you in St. Lucie! I would love to bring my little league team to come see you and possibly talk about your swing and your game!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

Good luck to those being drafted this year! I remember these days when I would’ve gotten drafted but got hurt so they didn’t pick me! Hard work gets you there but staying healthy is key!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@RyleyGilliam I believe they do. I try to create as much adversity for my little league team so they can always look back on their mental toughness. It’s not glamorous and I don’t make a lot of friends but it works. They get so much tougher and better from it

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@FrigginConner If it’s baseball trivia I’ll be rich!

[Coach Johnson @CoachJo696]

@nickscards22 hope you’re stretching every day. Gotta stay agile to block pitches
