I'm very grateful for the positive response from this video. @itstaiki did the emotional heavy lifting, but I'm very honored that he was inspired to create this by things I said. I didn't have an answer most of my career but I'm happy to finally have clarity on this question. https://t.co/gQl35Nyzqv

"How Good Am I?" A new short film by @itstaiki on the journey of longtime trainee Casey Weathers.

@ceetwo35 Why didn’t your feet come off the ground?

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@JasonOchart @OC____ Careful with those aspirations

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

Talented isn’t the right word when you’ve seen the work over the years. Excellence is mundane.

PR’s are only tight the first time you do them.

@JasonOchart Had a guy named Gibson in extended He went from Gibson to Gibby to Gibbler to Kimmy Gibbler to just Kimmy

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@JasonOchart Also, Treymond McNutt, Trail MixNutt and Treymóne

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

The exact opposite is why I chose @drivelinebases in the first place. Whether you agree with everything he says or not, Kyle has always been able to give me a reason why he thought something was worth doing. He never told me he was a guru. I read the blogs and chose for myself.

@caseymweathers Now you find that out. I told you not to listen to PTBoddy. 😍

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

Asking “why?” Or “how do you know?” Is a good way to be labeled “uncoachable” or “stubborn.” There is an extremely important distinction between finding a process you can trust vs. blindly following the advice of authority figures.

A song near and dear to my heart. Plus a Creed cover, I might as well have commissioned this song. Underrated aspect here is the boredom induced that allows this creativity.

Teammate wrote this song about extended spring training and it’s gold....full studio recording coming

If anyone wants to know what’s going on in an minor leaguer’s mind in extended, give it a listen

Huge thanks to Client Zero, @jhinny13 Been training with us all summer getting ready for his first year at Cal. Tremendous adherence to the program. PR in mound Velo and Run and Gun in his exit testing. Excited to see him w/spikes and adrenaline.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@JoeTorres41 Thanks so much Joe! I’m glad you still like me after having to deal with me and my 40 minute throwing programs and ever changing mechanical “breakthroughs” in 2011.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@DannyDiesel21 Thanks Danny! This is actually cut from about a 20 min speech I gave at Driveline a while back. Trainees had some great questions post as well where I was able to elaborate a bit more.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@devenmorgan Glad he got something out of it! I’m happy to see it getting some traction in the under 10 community.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@nickpasquale27 Bless up. I may miss meathooks most of all

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

It has been a while since I’ve been on social media. In general I think it is important to detox, but I wanted to step away for myself. Walking away from playing is already challenging, and twitter can feel like an environment of people telling you how/who you should be.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

This is an extreme compliment coming from someone who has worked with me my whole career as well as numerous high level professionals. I’ll respectfully disagree with one thing. I don’t deserve anything. All you can do is earn opportunities.

[Mark Pieper @Mark_Pieper]

I have the pleasure of working with @caseymweathers. Hard to find anyone with that level of determination, honesty, self-reflection, and pure grit. People like that deserve a better fate but in the end, his journey has made him who he is and will only end in life success https://t.co/5p5CDZMGVR

.@Coach_Bomber was the first one who introduced me to pitching development. Unfortunately I was more interested in still hitting, but from the first day I became a pitcher I knew there was more I could be doing to improve and prepare.

[Coach Bomber @Coach_Bomber]

@caseymweathers @drivelinebases @itstaiki I’m grateful for the video. I’m happy for you. Like all the guys I’m luck enough to coach, I want the best for them. You’ve found the best for you. You told me this fall, I just wasn’t good enough. I don’t think I’ve ever heard that from a player.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@TheEdHill Thanks man! Well you can’t talk about honesty and go up and give the speech with the Disney ending. Authenticity is a nice compliment and I really appreciate it.

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

Excited for everyone to see the video @itstaiki has been working on for @DrivelineBB made from a speech I gave. When I rehearsed it with my Grandma she emphatically reviewed it as, "too dark to give to college kids"

[Casey Weathers @caseymweathers]

@Vin_Cecil That’s a pretty lofty compliment, but thank you. I tend to worry I am a little too “demotivational,” but the message seems to be well received so far.
