Lotta speculation on who i was speaking of in my post last night. So let’s get it outta the way. I was disappointed in how UF coach Sully handled the situation of the time change in the CC region. I felt it could have been addressed differently. As I sat with my UGA alum friend, watching the Dawgs/Okla st, the uniforms were a mess, taunting, bat flipping, shit talking was above and beyond normal. My friend who played baseball at UGA agreed. And an FSU pitcher tells a Miss St. hitter to ‘sit the f—k down, u inbred bitch’. I believe these to be excessive and unsportsmanlike. I am from Florida, I am a Gator at heart. I have a ton of respect for FSU…..played against Link Jarrett….and UGA has become my second favorite because of all of my relationships. This is not personal in any way, shape or form.
Im hearing of other instances as well, but these are the ones that i witnessed. Whenever coaches have to issue apologies, I know Im not the only one who feels this way. Want to wish the best of luck to the rest of the teams in the tournament. Have fun with ur teammates, respect ur opponent and respect the game!
Spent quite a bit of time watching college baseball this weekend. I will only watch a select few teams from here on out. Reason? They have coaches that respect the game and their opponents and demand the same of their players. Any team that doesn’t wear the uni correctly, taunts the other team, and has a coach that condones this behavior, is a disgrace to the game. Big fan of coach Schnall at Coastal Carolina! Him and his team represent what college baseball should be like. Well done, sir! U stand for proper behavior.
Hitting starts WAY before getting into the box. Below are 6 steps that will lead to more consistent hitting…
1. I believe it all starts the night before with a good PM routine leading to a good night of sleep. Know that a great day today started the night before.
2. Have a solid pre-game routine and be consistent with it. (cage work, BP, standing in on bullpens, visualization, journaling, nap, limit screen time, etc.)
3. Know when your at-bat starts so you can segment the game and turn up the intensity of your focus. Is it when you’re in the hole, on deck, when you put your batting gloves on?
4. When you’re on deck, act like you’re in the box. This time is crucial to take control of your self-talk and breath, and get in sync with the pitcher.
5. Walk with big body language to the plate. Whether you are 10 for your last 15 or 0 for your last 15, carry yourself like the most confident version of you at all times.
6. Have a solid pre-pitch routine. Utilize your breath and make sure your self-talk is directing your focus to what you WANT to happen, rather than what you HOPE doesn’t happen.
The great part about these steps is that they are all 100% in your control. Be great with them, and you will win the inner war, and you will become a much more consistent hitter.

Go back and look at this guy's numbers, amazing!
And the numbers are just a small fraction of what made this man great. You don't get that nickname from stats... It came because of his impact 👊🏼
Today’s advice:
Play multiple sports.
Corey Koskie, new @Twins Hall of Famer, said on @MLBNetwork that he didn’t play serious baseball until he was 19 years old.
Corey’s favorite sport was hockey. His best sport was volleyball. He played nearly 1,000 @MLB games.
