One of the best phone calls I get is from a college coach asking about a kid who isn’t necessarily our most talented athlete…

They want to know how he works. How he responds to coaching. How he treats people. What he’s like when things aren’t going his way

Because velocity, exit velo, and physical tools are only part of the evaluation

Coaches are trying to figure out who they want in their program for the next 4 years

To every kid going through the recruiting process…

How you carry yourself when nobody important is watching can become the reason somebody important wants you

One of the hardest lessons I learned after my baseball career ended:

I had tied too much of my identity to the game.

When I played, everything revolved around baseball.

If I had a great game, life felt great.
If I struggled, it felt like everything was wrong.

My emotions followed the same rollercoaster as the game.

And the truth is, when my emotions were on that rollercoaster, it did not just affect me.

It affected the people I loved the most, because they were the ones who had to deal with it.

And when baseball ended, I realized something that caught me completely off guard:

I did not know where to find my sense of purpose.

That is how powerful this game can be.

It pulls you in so deeply that it’s easy to start believing baseball is who you are, not just something you do.

Today when I talk with high school and college players, this is one of the main things I see.

So many of them have tied their identity completely to the game.

One thing I always make sure they hear from me is simple:

I am proud of you.

And I say that after a great game or a tough one.

Because that pride has nothing to do with performance on the field.

It has everything to do with the person they are becoming.

Sometimes to find perspective, we need to take a step back and look at how far we have come.

It is easy to get stuck in the present and focus only on what needs to happen next to advance.

But when we pause and reflect on the work, growth, and experiences that brought us here, it reminds us that our worth is not tied to one moment, one game, or one season.

The truth is, the game eventually ends for all of us.

What matters most has to be bigger than baseball.

Faith.
Family.
Friendships.

Those are the things that carry you long after the final out.

When your identity is rooted there, baseball becomes what it was always meant to be:

A game to love.
A place to compete.
A platform to grow.

Not the definition of your worth.

[Travis Clark @tclarkpitching]

We coach humility to our athletes..

If you come in with a big ego, you probably won’t last long

Check the ego or you’re going to have quite the wake up call when you get to college

If you want to a be a one of a kind player not a copy and paste of some dude that was good twenty years ago go to @mineperformance. Travis changed my life bc he didn’t just care about making money. He cared about my health and well being. I’m not near my ceiling but I’m primed.

Threw a great live pen tonight at @mineperformance against one of the best competitors I’ve faced in a while in cam tiemeier. FB 85-87 T 88.5 CUT 80-81(2200-2400rpm) CB 71-73(2400-2600rpm). Feeling great, and putting all the work I can in.@tclarkpitching @BadinBaseball

Another 2026 RHP looking for a home

Up to 90mph this summer…absolutely filthy arsenal

6’3 frame & still filling out….high ceiling

8 Ks through 4 innings yesterday 👇🏼

[Travis Clark @tclarkpitching]

This thread is incredible

I have an endless list of pitchers scared to fail because of this style of coaching 👇🏼

When a pitcher is struggling to find the zone, it’s important to allow these guys to work through it….or it’s a never ending cycle

Prioritize development

[Michelle Davis @Michell46551840]

@tclarkpitching THIS!!!!

[Elliot Davis @ElliotDavis07]

Had a great time at the mine academy showcase today. Felt great to get in front of some coaches and show them what I have. Thank you to @tclarkpitching for this opportunity.

[Elliot Davis @ElliotDavis07]

I will be pitching in the first mine performance scout day Saturday 8/16 at 12:55. Looking forward to this opportunity. Thanks to @tclarkpitching

[Travis Clark @tclarkpitching]

Good baseball coaches & organizations recognize an athlete’s projection…

Bad coaches & orgs wait until the athlete “meets their program’s expectations” before they totally buy in…

As an athlete, recognize the coaches who are buying into you early on during your progression. The ones who stay quiet until you achieve success are probably in it for themselves

@tclarkpitching @AaronThomas2026 Congrats Aaron !!! The Davis family loves you !
