🚨Mike Trout: Outfield Reads
• No dead feet
• Timing the release of the pitcher
• 1st step is the most important
⭐️ BP is the best time for outfielders to get game like reads. Don’t take shagging for granted those are your reps!
Champions aren't born.
They are built.
True greatness is crafted daily, not in a single moment. Every day, every action counts.
There is no secret to success, but there is a pattern:
hard work
discipline
commitment
resilience
pushing limits
sacrifice
enthusiasm
🚨 Paul Skenes Warmup Drill
Emphasis On:
• A strong + active front arm
• Staying back / not drifting too early
• Keeping shoulders & hips closed
• Proper load into the back leg
⭐️ Great drill to help pitchers understand the value of a strong glove arm.
This is the mentality you HAVE to have as a young player…
• It won’t always go your way
• The hard-work won’t always pay off
• Life isn’t fair - keep pushing
⭐️ All you can do is stack positive days and trust your process.
Trevor Bauer talking about how the eyes set up your direction. I have this conversation all the time with hitters. So many hitters over close off their shoulders causing them to pull off.
"I'm done. I'm not chasing that anymore Lord. I want to play for You."
Listen to this powerful message from @UKBaseball coach Nick Mingione (and his son Reeves) after punching their ticket to their first College World Series
If you do nothing else today, stop and take 2 minutes to listen to Kentucky Baseball’s @Coach_Mingione PREACH during his press conference after his team punched its ticket to the College World Series for the first time ever.
Incredible stuff 🙏
National Champion Jay Johnson mic'd up during fall ball
- To the hitter: Hit your pitch, not his pitch in this situation!
- Hitters: Not every pitch is driveable, not every strike is a good one for YOU.
