Some things we’ve learned about the youth and HS game:
• Players who spend hours practicing on their own time are almost always the most prepared and have the most success.
• There is a major hole in the area of pitcher and catcher development.
• Fear dominates almost everyone involved (players, parents AND coaches). Fear of getting hurt. Fear of embarrassment. Fear of missing out.
• HS athletes hoping for an opportunity at the next level need to understand the importance of their HS grades and how they can help open up doors. Baseball programs are limited in athletic scholarships(might be changing soon) but academic scholarships can be a huge help.
• GameChanger stats are about as trustworthy as the election results when the opposing party wins.
• Just because a program is big doesn’t mean it’s best. Parents, do your due diligence.
• The mental side of the game is a difference maker yet so misunderstood. More need to understand psychology and the role it plays in athletic performance.
This just make me smile.😀I keep saying, sometimes you got to ZOOM in to the see the little things in life. Think Moms are not 120% vested in their kids success? Check out Mom Murphy and Mom Garcia in the background! We love our MOMs!!! 👍
Excited for #HRS2023 in NOLA! Looking forward to reconnecting with friends and mentors and meeting new faces! Who else is going? #EPeeps@hrsonline https://t.co/3nO95hgN6T
Dear everyone working in large tertiary care hospitals...
👉Please do not assume that just because we work in a small hospital that we do not know what we are doing.
We all trained in the same places and have more experience with sick patient than you might think.

Great tips. Early on I had colleagues say my notes were too long so they didn’t read them. At first I was offended. Then I learned and got better. Know your audience and document accordingly.
Sometimes I make the diagnosis that was missed by others before me and it is a moment that reaffirms that I MAKE A DIFFERENCE. My education, training, and experience make a difference in a person’s life. I am here for a reason. And that’s why I keep coming back.
@snakagawa_md We brought pizza and cold beer to the hospice unit for my father in law because that’s what he said he wanted. It felt weird walking through the unit with a case of beer and a pizza but I didn’t care. He died that night. 💔
@thatgirl409 Here’s a good one. Pacer dependent Bi-V ICD already reached replacement interval in November. Battery needs changed in the next month at this point. Insurance denied 🤦🏼♀️💀 had to go through 2 appeals!
