🧵 The 7 things college baseball coaches evaluate that have nothing to do with your son's swing or velocity.
After 35 years on both sides of recruiting, here's what actually moves the needle:
The “boring” stuff wins ballgames:
-Backing up the play
-Putting the ball in play
-Moving the runner
-Making the routine plays
-Consistent communication
-Throwing strikes
-Smart baserunning
-Taking your walks
-Getting HBP, holding your ground
-Hitting a cutoff man
-Hustling out everything
*At some point, the “boring” tasks of ⚾️ will win extra games! And more often than not, playoff berths, seedings, playoff wins, and even championships can be determined and decided by what many would call “boring.”
Turn the “boring” into the “important” and that’s how you win!

@nirav_maine You conned us with your word salad each day during Covid, your liberal tactics are now being exposed with Mills and Mainers will not be fooled again..you have not shot at being elected governor
Baseball is such an amazing teacher of life
Today on Opening Day, the Vandy catcher hit 3 nuke shot home runs. Each of them cleared the fence by 50 feet and one may have been the furthest ball I’ve seen hit
He also threw a 90 ft toss away that cost his team the game
He did 3 things that not one player in 1,000 could do, but cost Vandy the game by failing to execute on a task that 99% of players can
And isn’t that just like life? How many hidden geniuses are there who can do the uncommon, but you’ve never heard of them because they struggle to execute on what’s common?
Your weaknesses may never be your strengths, but you have to get them to the point where they’re not taking you out of the game
Watch as a gangster grabs himself aggressively during the Super Bowl halftime show.
This is what they want our kids to watch.
This is what they want to normalize.
Evil people control the entertainment industry in our country!
